  infections occur in women (CDC, n.d.).

  women than men (Womenshealth.gov., 2009).

STIs: PUBLIC HEALTH PROBLEM

โ€ข The main preventable cause of infertility in
  women is STIs (WHO, 2011).
โ€ข โ€œIn pregnant women with untreated early
  syphilis, 25% of pregnancies result in stillbirth
  and 14% in neonatal deathโ€ (WHO, 2011,
  para. 1).

DISCUSSION QUESTION
โ€ข Why are women more susceptible to sexually
  transmitted infections (STIs) than men? How
  can women protect themselves from acquiring
  STIs?
