This document provides information from a multi-day seminar on relationships, sexuality, and sexual health. It discusses topics like peer pressure, pornography, sexting, pre-marital sex, and relationship building. It also covers anatomy, reproduction, contraception myths, and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) like chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, HIV/AIDS, and human papillomavirus (HPV). STIs are common among teens and young adults, with nearly half of new STI cases occurring in people ages 15-25 yearly. Keeping oneself informed on these topics is important for making wise decisions.

44. STIs and STDs
 We want to give you a medically-accurate understanding of the risks of sexual
activity by explaining STI transmission and how diseases move through a population.
 We aren’t just trying to scare you to death – we want you to know the truth as you
make big decisions in your life.
STI stands for Sexually
Transmitted Infections
STD stands for Sexually
Transmitted Diseases
An STD is the later stages of a STI.

45. SEX
 In the medical community, sex is defined as:
ANYTHING that puts you in contact with
the blood, body fluids, or skin in the
genital area - puts you at risk for
STIs and STDs.

46. SEX
 Body Fluids that carry STIs & STDs:
 Blood
 Semen
 Vaginal secretions
 Saliva
 Breast milk, in the case of HIV

53. STIs & STDs
 In 1950, there were 2 commonly known STIs.
 Today, there are 27 significant STIs & STDs. The current risks are much
bigger than ever before. We are going to look at 7 of the most
common STIs now.
 No one just happens upon an STI. In most cases (except babies at
birth and tainted blood transfusions) a person has to do something
risky to get it. Cannot be spread by casual contact and can be avoided.
 A common misperception is that a toilet seat can spread infection;
this isn’t likely, since the bacteria or parasite need warm, moist
environments to live and cannot live long on objects.

54. Pus Causing Diseases

55. Chlamydia
 The most common reported
bacterial STI in the US, with an
estimated 3 million new
cases/year.
 Can get with or without visible
symptoms—up to 50% of men
and 75% of women show no
symptoms – but they are
contagious.
 Transmitted by all the body fluids
except breast milk.
 Bacterial—curable with
antibiotics if it is detected.
 If symptoms show up, it is usually
pus and burning in the genital
area, especially when urinating.
Women also have lower
abdominal pain.

56. Chlamydia

57. Gonorrhea
 Street name: "The Clap”
 An estimated 700,000
Americans get new infections
annually.
 Transmitted by all the body
fluids except breast milk
 Bacterial—curable with
antibiotics if it is detected
 Majority of those infected
don’t have symptoms.
 If symptoms show up, it is
usually pus and burning in the
genital area (reportedly feels
like one is urinating razor
blades)
 Affects body organ systems
other than genital organs

58. Gonorrhea

59. Gonorrhea in an Eye

60. Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)
 Untreated Chlamydia & Gonorrhea
cause Pelvic Inflammatory Disease
(Up to 40% of women with
untreated chlamydia develop PID)
 Leads to infertility, chronic pain &
ectopic pregnancy (Major cause of
infertility in women)
 The most common cause of PID is
sexual contact without protection.
 PID is a general term for infection
of the uterus lining, fallopian
tubes, or ovaries.
 Most cases of pelvic inflammatory
disease are caused by bacteria that
move from the vagina or cervix
into the uterus, fallopian tubes,
ovaries, or pelvis.

62. Trichamoniasas
 Street name: “Trick”
 Estimated 7.4 million cases
occur in the US each year.
 Transmitted through vaginal,
anal and oral sex
 Caused by the single-celled
protozoan parasite,
Trichomonas vaginalis. Can be
cured with antibiotics if
diagnosed.
 One of the most common
sexually transmitted diseases,
mainly affecting 16-to-35-year
old women
 About 70% of infected people
have no visible symptoms .
 If there are symptoms, there
may be a mild, frothy, foul-
smelling discharge or painful
irritation of the urethra.

63. Trichamoniasas

64. Ulcerative Diseases

65. Herpes
 Two Types:
• Herpes Type 1 (HSV-1) - cold sores,
fever blisters and chancre sores
(not an STI, but can be transmitted
sexually)
• Herpes Type 2 (HSV-2) – genital
Herpes
 Transmitted through all fluids (except
breast milk) and skin-to-skin contact -
without visible symptoms and
whether or not taking treatment
medication
 Viral—INCURABLE. Once infected, the
person will have the disease, and be
contagious, for the rest of his/her life
 Between 85-90% of people with HSV-
2 don’t know it, but they are
contagious.
 Symptoms are small blisters, skin
ulcers in the genital area, and a
difficulty urinating. Can take
medicine to help control the blisters,
but can not be cured.
 Ocular (eye) herpes and Herpetic
Whitlow (finger) may occur in some
cases.

66. Herpes

67. Syphillis
 Highly contagious
 Transmitted through all fluids
(except breast milk) & skin-to-skin
contact
 Bacterial—curable with antibiotics
in early stages if detected.
 Occurs in three stages, during
which the symptoms may advance
from small painless chancre sores
to fever and lesions, and
eventually to brain damage,
paralysis and destruction of
arteries and organs.
 If not cured by early 2nd stage,
irreversible central nervous system
damage occurs. People die of
syphilis during the third stage.

70. Syphilis & HIV…
 What is the link between syphilis and HIV?
 In the United States, approximately half of Men who have sex with
Men (MSM) with primary and secondary (P&S) syphilis were also
living with HIV. In addition, MSM who are HIV-negative and
diagnosed with P&S syphilis are more likely to be infected with HIV
in the future. Having a sore or break in the skin from an STD such as
syphilis may allow HIV to more easily enter your body. You may also
be more likely to get HIV because the same behaviors and
circumstances that put you at risk for getting other STDs can also
put you at greater risk for getting HIV.

71. Bloodborne Diseases

72. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)
 Approximately 1.2 million
people living with HIV/AIDS in
the US. Over 565,000 have
died of AIDS.
 Viral
 Transmitted through all fluids,
including breast milk
 Affects immune system – virus
invades certain white cells in
the blood and destroy them
so the body can’t fight off
even the simplest infections.
 HIV leads to AIDS (Acquired
Immune Deficiency
Syndrome). People die of
AIDS—because their immune
systems cannot fight off
infections.

73. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)
 Jackson, Mississippi has 4th Highest Rate of HIV Infection in
the Nation
 News report video here…

74. Human Papillomavirus (HPV)
 Street name: genital warts
 Transmitted by skin-to-skin contact
only—condom effectiveness against HPV
is inconclusive. There is some indication
that they can help reduce infection, but
that’s only if the disease is living in skin
cells covered by a condom (and there’s
really no way of knowing that for sure).
 Only 2 strains cause warts (types 6 &
11). There are 15 high-risk strains of HPV.
Three of the 15 cause 75% of the cancer
that results from HPV (types 16, 18, 45).
 Leading cause of cancer-related death in
women - 99% of cases of cervical cancer
are caused by HPV
 It’s almost impossible to detect HPV
infection in men, unless warts show up.
 90% of HPV cases resolve on their own.
The other 10% causes warts or cancer.
 It can take up to 18 months to remove all
of the HPV warts, but the patient will be
under the doctor’s care for the rest of
his/her life.

78. STI & STD Frequency
 There are 27 significant STIs.
 There are 19 million new cases
of STIs in the US each year.
 Of those, nearly half (9.1
million) are 15-25 year olds.
 That’s one young adult every
3.3 seconds. Count it off!
 1 in 2 sexually active teens
will get an STI.
 Mississippi has the third highest rate
for gonorrhea, fifth highest rate for
chlamydia and 12th highest for
syphilis. More than 17,000
Mississippians reported having
chlamydia in 2015, down from more
than 21,000 in 2011. The state's
syphilis rates, however, have almost
tripled in the last three years, and
the Mississippi Department of Health
website shows that rates are rising
quickest in young African American
men.
