Study Notes

Overview of STDs and STIs

Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) spread between hosts through sexual behaviors and vehicle transmission.
Many STDs present few early symptoms, making early detection challenging and increasing transmissibility.
Difficulty in contacting, notifying, or treating sexual partners contributes to the spread of STDs.

Pathogens Involved

Pathogens responsible for STDs include bacteria, protists, viruses, and some parasitic invertebrates.

Bacterial STIs: Chlamydia

Caused by Chlamydia trachomatis, a gram-negative obligate intracellular parasite.
Chlamydia is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections globally.
It significantly contributes to pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in females.
Infected females often remain asymptomatic but may experience urethritis, dysuria (painful urination), and increased urinary frequency.
