एचआईवी यानी ह्युमन इम्युनोडेफिशिएंसी वायरस एक ऐसा वायरस है जो मनुष्य की प्रतिरक्षा प्रणाली को प्रभावित करता है। चूंकि यह वायरस प्रतिरक्षा प्रणाली पर ही हमला करता है इसलिए हमारी प्रतिरक्षा प्रणाली इस वायरस के खिलाफ रक्षात्मक प्रतिक्रिया करने में सक्षम नहीं है। इसका यह अर्थ है कि एचआईवी से पीड़ित व्यक्ति अन्य संक्रमणों और बीमारियों के प्रति अधिक संवेदनशील होता है।
एचआईवी एक संक्रमित व्यक्ति से दूसरे व्यक्ति में रक्त, वीर्य, या योनि के तरल पदार्थ के संपर्क में आने से फै...more

Are you aware of the different consequences that may occur if you have multiple sexual partners?

Until the infection is treated, your viral load may get pushed up. This makes it more likely that many people pass on the HIV virus by having unprotected sex.

The acronym for 'Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome' is AIDS. In fact, it must be understood that AIDS is not a singular disease, but a syndrome, or rather a set of diseases. People suffering from AIDS suffer from an immensely compromised immune system that makes them vulnerable to a number of diseases. Once infected with HIV, it may take anywhere between 5-10 years to develop AIDS.

Also, the fact that there are often no symptoms associated with chlamydia makes it even harder to diagnose and deal with. As many as 75% of infections in women and 50% of infections in men have no symptoms associated with the chlamydia whatsoever. However, there may be a few observable symptoms such as:

Syphilis can be easily treated but if left too late, the antibiotics that treat it cannot reverse the damage caused by syphilis.
