Another thing i would like to share with you all is,
condoms do not 100% protect you from HPV.
HPV 16, 18 causes 80% of cervical cancer.
recent study : "young women whose partners used condoms every time they had sex were 70 percent less likely to contract HPV"
means that you have 30% to get it even you wear a condom!!

but.. the gp would know where to refer.. hehehe..

Sexually transmitted disease is caused by a variety of bugs
HPV is one of the asymptomatic (no symptom) ones.
The ones you all should be worried about should be syphilis, HIV, gonorrhea...

Just to share -
from CDC Fact Sheet on syphilis

Many people infected with syphilis do not have any symptoms for years, yet remain at risk for late complications if they are not treated. Although transmission occurs from persons with sores who are in the primary or secondary stage, many of these sores are unrecognized. Thus, transmission may occur from persons who are unaware of their infection.

Primary Stage
The primary stage of syphilis is usually marked by the appearance of a single sore , but there may be multiple sores. The time between infection with syphilis and the start of the first symptom can range from 10 to 90 days (average 21 days). The chancre is usually firm, round, small, and painless. It appears at the spot where syphilis entered the body. The chancre lasts 3 to 6 weeks, and it heals without treatment. However, if adequate treatment is not administered, the infection progresses to the secondary stage.

Secondary Stage
Skin rash and mucous membrane lesions characterize the secondary stage. This stage typically starts with the development of a rash on one or more areas of the body. The rash usually does not cause itching. Rashes associated with secondary syphilis can appear as the chancre is healing or several weeks after the chancre has healed. The characteristic rash of secondary syphilis may appear as rough, red, or reddish brown spots both on the palms of the hands and the bottoms of the feet. However, rashes with a different appearance may occur on other parts of the body, sometimes resembling rashes caused by other diseases. Sometimes rashes associated with secondary syphilis are so faint that they are not noticed. In addition to rashes, symptoms of secondary syphilis may include fever, swollen lymph glands, sore throat, patchy hair loss, headaches, weight loss, muscle aches, and fatigue. The signs and symptoms of secondary syphilis will resolve with or without treatment, but without treatment, the infection will progress to the latent and possibly late stages of disease.

Late and Latent Stages
The latent (hidden) stage of syphilis begins when primary and secondary symptoms disappear. Without treatment, the infected person will continue to have syphilis even though there are no signs or symptoms; infection remains in the body. This latent stage can last for years. The late stages of syphilis can develop in about 15% of people who have not been treated for syphilis, and can appear 10 – 20 years after infection was first acquired. In the late stages of syphilis, the disease may subsequently damage the internal organs, including the brain, nerves, eyes, heart, blood vessels, liver, bones, and joints. Signs and symptoms of the late stage of syphilis include difficulty coordinating muscle movements, paralysis, numbness, gradual blindness, and dementia. This damage may be serious enough to cause death.

Hi nitro,
Yes, STD can spread through oral s**

It infects your mouth, throat, eyes(rare).
Even HIV, hepatitis B, C can be passed through this method when there is a cut on both the mouth and g**** ,
but still, it is less likely compared to unprotective penetrative ***.
other than STD, Hepatitis A is a risk too.

So, how to reduce the risk?
avoid avoid and avoid if possible
if you can't...
go see a doctor, let the doctor screen for STDs in your partner.

hope this helps!

Hepatitis A is spread via fecal - oral route.

Foodborne transmission occurs when an Hepatitis A infected food handler contaminates food during preparation ( by not washing his hands after toilet ... )

And via oral s**,
it spreads if you don't clean the area well

No way hepatitis B is transmitted by sweat!
then all the doctors in the ward would be wearing gloves when checking them!

do you all know that in a recent study,
they found that a big portion of HIV carriers are more than 50 years old!
i was utterly shocked when i read this news!!
