With changes in attitudes, modern men and women are no longer as conservative about sex as their predecessors. It is precisely because of this indulgence that various high-risk behaviors occur. Male infectious diseases have obvious physical symptoms, but female patients' symptoms are easily confused with common gynecological diseases. Therefore, learning to recognize the symptoms of sexual diseases is crucial for timely treatment.
Six major symptoms of sexually transmitted diseases in women
1. Leucorrhea with yellow green pus
When there is an increase in vaginal discharge, presenting with yellow green pus, frequent urination, and painful urination, this symptom may indicate gonorrhea. The initial symptoms of gonorrhea are not obvious, or are often confused by other gynecological diseases, and treatment is not timely when detected. And in most cases, it is transmitted from males to females.
2. Leucorrhea appears as tofu residue
Increased vaginal discharge or tofu residue can cause itching in the external genitalia, which is a generalized sexually transmitted disease because it is generally caused by unclean sexual contact and gynecological diseases, but it cannot be ruled out to be caused by sexually transmitted diseases.
3. Leucorrhea has foam
When the vulva is itchy, the leukorrhea foam increases, and there is yellow liquid, this situation is not an ordinary leukorrhea abnormality, but caused by venereal diseases.
4. Ulcers on the surface of the genitalia
The labia has a hard knot and a slight ulcer on the surface. Women often do not feel uncomfortable and disappear after about a month. Many women ignore it, but in fact, this is a symptom of early syphilis.
5. Erythema
Many small red spots may appear on the body, but there are no symptoms of itching. This is actually the final sign of syphilis, indicating that early syphilis begins to turn into moderate syphilis symptoms.
6. Condyloma acuminatum
There are cauliflower shaped or serrated objects around the vaginal opening, which are painless to touch and usually have no sensation. This situation is often caused by genital warts, which generally appear gray or close to skin color. As a proliferative substance, it will grow and reproduce over time and clog the vaginal opening over time.
Can condoms prevent sexually transmitted diseases?
Condoms are an effective way to prevent sexually transmitted diseases, but the use of condoms cannot guarantee 100% prevention of infection from sexually transmitted diseases. This is mainly because condoms are not used correctly, the product quality is not up to standard, or after the shelf life, condoms cannot play a preventive role. And not all sexually transmitted diseases are transmitted through sexual contact. Although wearing condoms cannot completely avoid sexually transmitted diseases, research shows that the correct use of qualified condoms can greatly reduce the incidence rate of sexually transmitted diseases, so condom use is still advocated.
