Sex Disease & Treatment

Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile dysfunction, or ED, can be a total inability to achieve erection, an inconsistent ability to do so, or a tendency to sustain only brief erections. These variations make defining ED and estimating its incidence difficult. Estimates range from 15 million to 30 million, depending on the definition used.


Symptoms-

The list of signs and symptoms mentioned in various sources for Impotence includes:

  •  Impotence
  •  Inability to attain an erection
  •  Inability to sustain an erection

 Complications-

 Complications of Impotence are:

  •  Doubts over the real cause of not performing resulting in depression.
  •  Erectile dysfunction is often a symptom of other bigger problems
  •  Heart disease link to impotence
  •  Improvement in monitoring prostate cancer

Prevention- 

Although most men experience episodes of erectile dysfunction from time to time, you can take these steps to decrease the likelihood of occurrences:
Limit or avoid the use of alcohol and other similar drugs.

  • Stop smoking
  • Exercise regularly.
  • Reduce stress.
  • Get enough sleep.  Deal with anxiety or depression.

Syphilis

This sexually transmitted disease (STD), which in its late stages can cause mental disorders, blindness, and death, is caused by a corkscrew-shaped bacterium called Treponema pallidum.

Symptoms-

1.The first symptom of primary syphilis is a usually painless open sore called a chancre (pronounced "shanker"). The chancre can appear within 10 days to 3 months (usually 2 to 6 weeks) after exposure.

2.Because the chancre is ordinarily painless and sometimes occurs inside the body, it may go unnoticed. It is usually found on the part of the body exposed to the bacteria, such as the penis, the vulva, or the vagina. A chancre also can develop on the cervix, tongue, lips, or fingertips. The chancre disappears within a few weeks, but the disease continues. If not treated during the primary stage, the disease may progress through three other stages.

3.Secondary syphilis is marked by a skin rash that appears anywhere from 2 to 12 weeks after the chancre disappears. The rash may cover the whole body or appear only in a few areas, such as the palms of the hands or soles of the feet. Because active bacteria are present in these sores, any physical contact - sexual or nonsexual - with the broken skin of an infected person may spread the infection at this stage.

4.The rash may be accompanied by flu-like symptoms such as mild fever, fatigue, headache, sore throat, as well as patchy hair loss, swollen lymph glands throughout the body, and other problems. The rash usually heals within several weeks or months, and the other symptoms subside as well.

5.The signs of secondary syphilis occasionally come and go over the next 1 to 2 years. Like the symptoms of the primary stage, those of secondary syphilis can be very mild and go unnoticed.

Complications-

If untreated, syphilis then lapses into a latent stage during which the patient is no longer contagious.

Gonorrhea

Gonorrhea is a curable sexually transmitted disease. It is most common in young adults. The bacteria that cause gonorrhea can infect the genital tract, mouth or anus.
Gonorrhea does not always cause symptoms, especially in women. In men, gonorrhea can cause pain when urinating and discharge from the penis. If untreated, it can cause epididymitis, which affects the testicles and can lead to infertility. In women, gonorrhea can cause bleeding between periods, pain when urinating and increased discharge from the vagina. If untreated, it can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease, which causes problems with pregnancy and infertility. Gonorrhea can pass from mother to baby during pregnancy.

Symptoms-

1. The early symptoms of gonorrhea often are mild, and some people who are infected have no symptoms of the disease; this is one reason why it is so readily transmitted. If symptoms of gonorrhea develop, they usually appear within 2 to 10 days of sexual contact with an infected partner, although a small percentage of patients may be infected for several months without showing symptoms.

2 .No symptoms - some people and especially women may have no symptoms or very mild symptoms only; as many as 50% of female cases
