Answer 1

Sexually transmitted diseases (or STDs) are a varied group of infections that usually are passed from person to person by sexual contact. Some also spread from mother to child during pregnancy or childbirth. Widespread around the world, STDs are particularly common among people in their teens and early twenties. STDs range in severity from pubic lice, which usually cause only discomfort, to AIDS, which has caused millions of deaths in a worldwide epidemic.

Sexual contact between people is one important way that many diseasecausing organisms spread. More than 30 bacterial, viral, and parasitic diseases can pass from person to person in this way. For some of these, sexual contact is the main route of transmission. These are the illnesses we generally call sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
