Editor's Notes
- #2 Introduce myself, I’m HM1 Williford Dagher Preventive Medicine Technician for NMCB3. Aside from working in Medical I also oversee public health matters that include health and sanitation of public used facilities to include food, berthing and recreation as well as any water as applies. In addition, I would conduct contact investigations if there are Sexually transmitted diseases if discovered at our battalion. So, in turn I am going to present here on Sexual health and why it is important for the wellness of each and everyone here.
- #3 And these are the objectives (read them)
- #4 Here are the topics we till discuss, (read topics)
- #5 Each member in our organization is a key part to complete the mission and can do so through
- #6 There are a variety of factors that contribute to overall health and wellbeing of individuals including their sexual health.
- #7 Sexually transmitted diseases are spread through sexual intercouse through Vaginal, anal or oral sex. Condoms, one of the most widely used forms of protection for STDs but do not guarantee complete protection if exposed.
- #8 HIV is still growing in the United States and according to CDC 1 out of every 5 people don’t know they have it.
- #9 HIV is more prevalent in men and Men who have sex with men.
- #10 HIV like other STDs doesn’t always effect just the reproductive organs but spreads to other areas as well as shown here. HIV Face rash and Aids showing on tongue. It takes about 8-10 years for AIDS to develop in people who are infected and develops in 2-3 years in some. When symptoms initially begins they something similar to fever, rash, swollen lymph glands but none considered life threatening all while the virus multiplies in millions throughout the body. Its in the latter phase of AIDs when people begin to lose weight and get fungal infection of the mouth, finger and toes.
- #11 Chlamydia is the most common STD bacterial infection in the U.S. In 2011, 1,412,791 cases of Chlamydia were reported to CDC from 50 states and the District of Columbia, but an estimated 2.86 million infections occur annually and is known as a ‘silent’ infection because most infected people have no symptoms… but can lead to serious health conditions such as spreading to uterus and fallopian tubes damages reproductive organs and cause Pelvic Inflammatory disease (PID) as well as infertility. Complications are rare in men. Condoms can help but do not completely prevent transmission.
- #12 Can be transmitted even with no ejaculation. Annually, 820,000 people in the United States get new gonorrhea infections and less than half of these infections are detected and reported to CDC. Age groups are usually 18-24 year olds. Similar to Chlamydia; Gonorrhea is caused by bacteria and Chlamydia looks alike in symptoms. (The picture above is both Gonorrhea and Chlamydia). mouth, throat, eyes, and anus. When a woman has symptoms, they are often mild and can be mistaken for a bladder or vaginal infection
- #13 there are an estimated 7.4 million trichomoniasis cases each year in the United States, with over 180 million cases reported worldwide… caused by a protozoan parasite commonly called the (that effects men and women that is contagious but curable but can cause infertility if untreated as well as may contribute to pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in women and nongonococcal urethritis (NGU) and chronic prostatitis in men. According to the World Health Organization's annual estimates, can be prevented through wearing condoms
- #14 There is no cure for herpes, but treatment is available to reduce symptoms and decrease the risk of transmission to a partner. Laboratory tests helps determine if you have herpes.
- #15 Columbus day is coming our way for a day off- and so did he also bring Syphilis according to rumors in historic literatures. The first recorded syphilis epidemic was in 1495, during the First Italian War when France captured Naples and disbanded and released soldiers. CDC estimates that, annually, 55,400 people in the United States get new syphilis infections. Syphilis is transmitted from person to person by direct contact with syphilis sores. Sores occur mainly on the external genitals, vagina, anus, or in the rectum. About 15% of people who have not been treated for syphilis develop late stage syphilis, which can appear 10–30 years after infection began. The body organs basically begin to shut down at this point and stop functioning properly.
- #16 Bacterial infection only spread through sexual contact. About half of infected men have only a single ulcer. Women often have four or more ulcers. Treatment is through antibiotics and sometimes surgical interventions. Lymph nodes will become swollen as well. Condoms help protect
- #17 There are more then 70 types of HPV and some can cause cancer to cervix and anus. Genital warts-softs warts that form around the Sometimes HPV goes away on its own. HPV Condoms cannot fully protect you. Using alcohol, tobacco, being stressed and pregnant along with multiple partners will increase chances of HPV. Sometimes warts are hard to see and can be raised or flat and look like the top of cauliflower.
- #18 In the news article, Scientists warn us that a drug-resistant strain of the sexually transmitted disease could spread beyond Japan in a few decades. Since antibiotics became the standard treatment for gonorrhea in the 1940s, this bacterium has shown a remarkable capacity to develop resistance mechanisms to all drugs. Since then June of this year 2013 there has been a rise on antibiotic resistant gonorreha throughout the U.S., U.K. and other countries.
- #19 (Read them). Sometimes signs and symptoms are also not seen. This has been known to happen for example in males and females with Gonorrhea and Chlamydia. Though and yellow-greenish discharge is a typical symptom sometimes it’s not seen. So know your partner and know what you are doing with your sexual encounters.
- #24 Notice how I split up Sexually transmitted disease protection and Birth control? You can still get Sexually transmitted diseases when using birth control methods except for method of abstinence. There are temporary and permanent ways to protect against getting pregnant. When deciding your birth control method, It’s good to know potential side effects or adverse effects it can have on the body.
- #27 Some STDs can contribute to cancer of prostate and ovaries. Cancer in general can affect our reproductive organs and health and is good to be aware of. Women can get ovarian cysts as well. Symptoms can include pain in lower abdominal area
- #28 Sanitation is important for sexual encounters. This can be done through knowing what is being introduced into the body. If bacteria is introduced then there are higher chances of infection. Women have higher tendency towards urinary tract and bladder infections which can become Kidney infections quickly if not treated. Men can also get infection in these areas but are not as common. Wash on a regular basis to help prevent infections caused by microorganisms or bacteria.
- #29 I know everyone wants to see some pictures. These are a few but it’s also important to know that physical signs can vary and also can affect different areas of the body especially when left untreated.
