INTRODUCTION
“This is a hidden and silent epidemic. Normally an epidemic of this proportion would have attracted more attention.”
1996, Chancellor of Baylor College of Medicine
Refers to the 12 million new STI cases/year in
1996; now estimated to be 15 million/year (increase due to higher numbers and better testing)

INTRODUCTION
Hidden – 2 meanings
1. taboo subject of sex; not talked about publicly in a serious way
2. most Americans not aware of this epidemic
Silent – 3 meanings
1. some STIs have no symptoms
2. lack of communication between individuals and their health care providers
3. lack of communication between sexual partners
4
STI vs. STD
STI
Someone who is an infected person
ASYMPTOMATIC may not have any symptoms,
Could be unaware that they are even sick.
STD
A disease is any abnormal condition
of the body or mind with some type of symptom,
in other words your body tells you that you are unwell.
5
BACTERIA VIRUS
Living organism
May be stopped with appropriate antibiotic
Mild Severe
Not “alive;” lives on host
No known cures
Controlled by vaccine
Mild Severe
IMPACT ON WOMEN
Lack of symptoms; more difficult to diagnose until serious problems develop
150,000 (estimate) women become infertile each year due to PID (pelvic inflammatory disease)as a result of an STI
15-30% (estimate) of the 2.3 million US couples who are infertile may by result of an STI
7
RISK FACTORS
Most STIs more easily transmitted to women than to men
Co-factor: infected with an STI makes one more likely to contract another STI, including HIV, after unprotected sexual contact with an infected partner
Multiple sex partners increase risk of exposure over one’s lifetime
8
Viral
Viral:
Herpes
HPV
HIV
Hepatitis B
9
HERPES GENITALIS
Caused by: Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV);
Type 1: 50-80% exposure rate; prefers facial area;
Type 2: 20% exposure rate; prefers genital areas;
Once in body, migrates to a nerve cluster (ganglia) and goes dormant; evades detection from body’s immune system; probably not contagious at this time.
May stay dormant forever or may migrate back to its first entry point on skin (active phase); it infects healthy cells, making new viruses. The immune system attacks and destroys infected cells; this “battle” is a herpes “outbreak.”

Herpes - symptoms
Incubation period: 1-12 days after sex with an infected person; may not appear for months or years
Duration: may last 12 days; flu-like symptoms; avera.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

2. Genital Herpes (GH)
GH is a chronic sexually transmitted viral infection characterized
by recurring outbreaks of vesicles at the same site.
Age of onset : Young sexually active adults.
History :
Incubation Period: 2 to 20 days. average 6)
Symptoms: Only 10% of HSV-2 seropositive individuals are
symptomatic.
Incidence :
In the USA .60,000 new infections annually.
30 million Americans are HSV infected.
2
4. Transmission :
Skin to skin contact.
Most transmission occurs during times
of asymptomatic HSV shedding.
4
5. Pregnancy and GH
5
Risk factor for neonatal HSV
infection;
Primary GH in mother at time of
delivery,
Absent maternal HSV antibody.
6. Pathogenesis :
Infection occurs via inoculation into mucosal
or skin surface.
HSV ascends peripheral sensory nerves
and enters sensory or autonomic nerve root
ganglion, where latency is established.
Latency can occur after both asymptomatic
and symptomatic infection
6
7. Primary GH :
Most are asymptomatic.
Those with symptoms have fever,
headache, malaise, myalgia.
Pain itching, dysuria, vaginal and urethral
discharge are common
Grouped vesicles evolve to pustules which
break down to form erosions and ulcers.
7
9. Recurrent GH :
Common symptoms are itch, burning,
eruption of vesicles, erosion
A 1 to 2cm erythmatous plaque on which
are vesicles which rupture forming erosions.
Heals in 1 to 2 weeks.
9
11. Course and Prognosis
GH may be recurrent and has no cure.
70% of HSV 2 are asymptomatic.
HSV-2 GH recurs about 6 times/year
11
12. Investigations :
Identifications of virus :
Tzanck smear : presence of multinucleated giant cells, low sensitivity
Culture : ( confirmatory ) Isolation of HSV on tissue culture. Low
sensitivity
Fluorescent antibody test : Identification of virus from lesions using
fluorescent antibody staning.
PCR : Rapid, Specific, and Sensitive but expensive and used only as
a research tool
Serology :
Screening for IgM antibodies, elevated IgM doesn’t differentiate
present or past infection.
Recent “ point of care tests “ – base on glycoprotein G have high
sensitivity & specificity
13. Treatment :
Oral Antiviral Therapy:
Provide control of symptoms and signs
only.
Do not eradicate latent virus nor affect
subsequent recurrences.
Topical Antiviral therapy is of no use.
13
14. Primary or Initial infection
Antiviral most effective when given within 48
hours of onset of symptoms.
Dosages:
Acyclovir : 400mg TDS for 7 to 10 days.
Famciclovir : 250 mg BD for 10 days
14
15. Recurrent episodes :
Some benefit if treatment started within 24
hours.
Acyclovir : 400mg TDS for 5 days
Famciclovir : 250 mg BD for 5 days
