1. Human papillomavirus (HPV)
Human Papillomavirus is a sexually transmitted disease or infection that is very common among sexually active people. According to the CDC, nearly all sexually active men and women get at least one type of HPV at some point in their lives, making it almost impossible to estimate how many people have it. HPV can move from the infected person to the uninfected person through the different forms of intercourse, and its symptoms can take even years before they surface. However, when it remains untreated HPV can lead to the development of genital warts and cervical cancer. Some of the symptoms of genital warts include:
-Fleshy or grey coloured swellings in an individual’s genital area
-Cauliflower shaped warts
-Discomfort and persistent itching in the genital area
-Bleeding during intercourse
Cervical cancer can be treated if it is detected in its early stages, but when it spreads too much it gets to a point of no return. HPV is also responsible for many other types of cancers, making it one of the most dangerous STD.
