Abstract

More than 1 million curable sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are acquired worldwide each day. There are more than 30 bacterial, viral, and parasite infections that are transmitted through sexual contact, including oral, vaginal, and anal intercourse. In this article, we will discuss less common bacterial and viral STIs that affect women's health and highlight the most recent data associated with each infection, its clinical manifestation and significance, as well as approach to treatment and prevention of STIs.
