STDs are infections that are passed from one person to another by vaginal, anal, or oral contact. They are exceedingly common, and many people who have them have no symptoms. If left untreated, STDs can cause serious health problems. More than 30 bacteria, viruses, and parasites have been related to sexual intercourse. The most frequent way for STIs to spread is through sexual contact, which includes vaginal, anal, and oral sex. Several STIs can be transferred from mother to child during pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. A person can have a STI without showing any signs of sickness. Common STD symptoms include vaginal discharge, urethral discharge or burning in men, genital ulcers, and belly pain.
