Route of transmission
Usually, there are five main modes of transmission of sexually transmitted diseases:
(1) Direct contact with infection.
(2) Indirect contact infection.
(3) Placental birth canal infection.
(4) Iatrogenic transmission.
(5) Contact transmission in daily life.
According to statistics, over 90% of sexually transmitted diseases are directly transmitted through sexual intercourse, so the transmission of sexually transmitted diseases is mainly through sexual contact.
