FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT STD’s

Can you catch an STD such as HIV or herpes by sitting on a public toilet or sharing towels?

NO. While crabs (pubic lice) and scabies can be spread person-to-person from infested objects, the more serious STDs cannot be spread this way. STDs such as human papilloma virus (HPV), gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis and herpes simplex virus type 2 (genital herpes) are passed through sexual contact (vaginal, oral or anal intercourse) or from a mother to her infant during pregnancy or delivery. HPV and herpes can also be spread by skin to skin contact. HIV is usually spread through sexual contact, by mother-to-child transmission (including breast-feeding), or blood-to-blood contact.

Is cervical cancer an STD?

YES. Virtually all cases of cervical cancer are caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV). HPV is a sexually transmitted virus that infects up to 75 percent of sexually active American women during their lifetime.

 Can you have an STD without any symptoms?

YES. Many people infected with gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, genital warts, genital herpes, trichomoniasis or HIV DO NOT have any visible symptoms. Infected people may unknowingly pass the infection to their sexual partners. If you have ever had unprotected intercourse you should get tested. Make a choice today to commit to sexual purity.

Can STDs make you infertile?

YES. About 10 percent of women who are infected with gonorrhea or chlamydia will develop pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), an infection of the uterus, fallopian tubes or ovaries. PID typically occurs during the childbearing years. It is the number one preventable cause of infertility in the United States. Though condoms may help to decrease your risk for getting HIV, chlamydia, gonorrhea and trichomoniasis, they are not 100%. Condoms have tiny, intrinsic holes called “voids”. The HIV/AIDS virus is 50 times smaller than these miniscule holes so why take chances with your life?

Also, condoms do not cover all skin surfaces; therefore a condom does not protect you from diseases spread by skin-to-skin contact, such as genital herpes, genital warts and syphilis.

Can you get vaccinated against STDs?

Other than for hepatitis B, you cannot receive a vaccine to prevent any STDs. The only way to prevent an STD is to remain abstinent (sexually pure, until marriage).

Are all STDs curable?

NO. Although you can take medicine to decrease symptoms of STDs such as HIV, genital herpes and genital warts, they are not curable. Some STDs such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis and trichomoniasis can be treated with antibiotics.
