Overview

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are infectious diseases that are spread primarily through sexual contact. Treatment of STDs is important to prevent further complications and transmission to others. Depending on the specific STD, treatments can include medications, vaccines, or surgically removing affected areas such as warts. Prevention is key to controlling the spread of STDs; however, if already infected, seeking treatment early is important to reduce potential complications. Early diagnosis and treatment of STDs can help to reduce long-term physical and emotional complications, while also preventing transmission to others.
