Can STD patients give birth to healthy babies?

 　　exist sexually transmitted diseases Today, in addition to paying attention to how to effectively treat STDs, another topic has also attracted the attention of many STD patients, that is, "can STD patients have children?" healthy baby? ”

　　Why do sexually transmitted diseases affect fertility?

　　The relationship between sexually transmitted diseases and fertility is very close. Why do you say this? Because sexually transmitted diseases mainly infect the genitourinary tract system disease ,right male Generally speaking, the genitourinary tract is a channel, and urinary tract infections will directly affect the reproductive tract, affect reproductive function, and thus affect male fertility. In fact, in addition to sexually transmitted diseases, there are other pathogenic infections that can also affect male infertility. And for female Although the reproductive tract and urinary tract are separate, the reproductive system and sexual life are very closely related, so it is easy to cause sexually transmitted diseases, and sexually transmitted diseases often cause problems in women.

　　Several types of sexually transmitted diseases related to reproductive health

　　First: Gonorrhea

　　The relationship between gonorrhea and male fertility

　　Gonorrhea can easily cause frequent urination, urgency, painful urination, and urethral discharge in men. This is a very common disease with the highest incidence rate. If not treated in time, the pathogen, which is diplococcus gonorrhoeae, will travel up the urinary or reproductive tract and cause epididymitis.

　　and sperm It mainly survives in the epididymis. Inflammation of the epididymis will naturally affect sperm production, resulting in insufficient sperm production or decreased sperm motility, thus affecting male fertility. Of course, it can also cause inflammation of the vas deferens, prostatitis . These may lead to reduced male fertility or infertility.

　　The relationship between gonorrhea and female fertility

　　For women, gonorrhea retrograde infection will first cause inflammation of the cervix, and then it can cause inflammation through the cervix. Uterus Inflammation of the endometrium and retrograde infection can cause inflammation of the fallopian tube. If the infection continues upward, it can cause inflammation of the ovary. The most serious infection can lead to intra-abdominal infection, because the female reproductive tract is connected to the abdominal cavity.

　　In summary, gonorrhea affects women mainly by causing abnormalities in the pipeline. For example, gonorrhea infection can cause stenosis, blockage or obstruction of the ducts, which can occur in the fallopian tubes and fallopian tube infertility. This is the most common cause of infertility. Of course, it can also cause endometritis and inflammation, causing the fertilized egg to be unable to implant and split in the uterus, so that it cannot be fixed in the uterus and cannot grow in the uterus.

　　Second: Nongonococcal urethritis

　　Nowadays, it is more commonly called chlamydia urogenital tract infection or mycoplasma urogenital tract infection. Everyone is familiar with chlamydia and mycoplasma. Urogenital symptoms caused by mycoplasma and chlamydial infections are mild. For men, there may be slight redness and swelling of the urethral opening, and there may be some mucus at the urethral opening in the morning. But these conditions are episodic, not persistent. For women, the main manifestations in the reproductive tract are: Abnormal leucorrhea , the amount of leucorrhea increases slightly, and there may be some peculiar smell, but it is not like the fishy smell of gonorrhea.

　　In short, the symptoms of Chlamydia and Mycoplasma infection of the reproductive tract of men and women are not very obvious at the beginning, and people tend to ignore it. By the time it is discovered, some damage has already been done, and treatment is difficult.

　　The relationship between nongonococcal urethritis and male fertility

　　Infections by chlamydia and mycoplasma are the same as gonorrhea. They can cause inflammation of the epididymis, especially mycoplasma infection, which can cause epididymitis. Epididymitis can cause some problems in sperm production, which can cause a decrease in sperm volume, motility, and mobility, resulting in the inability to combine with eggs normally and affecting male infertility. Of course, it can also cause inflammation of the vas deferens, seminal vesicles and prostatitis.

　　The relationship between nongonococcal urethritis and female fertility

　　For women, it is also a retrograde infection process. Chlamydia and mycoplasma enter the uterus along the cervix, causing salpingitis Symptoms and inflammation of the abdominal cavity, its process is basically similar to gonorrhea. It can easily lead to stenosis and blockage of fallopian tubes. It causes the sperm and egg to not combine properly, or the sperm and egg to not implant properly, leading to female infertility.

　　Third, genital herpes

　　This disease is caused by a virus, mainly caused by herpes simplex virus type 2, accounting for more than 90% of cases. The biggest characteristic of genital herpes is that it recurs constantly and frequently. After a period of time, small blisters will appear in the genital area. Sometimes there is burning and itching, but the pain is not obvious. The first time you get a blister, you may feel pain and general discomfort. When it occurs again in the future, the systemic symptoms will be mild or even no symptoms at all.

　　For now, it is not possible to completely cure genital herpes. Therefore, patients with this disease have to bear both physical and psychological pressure. Because it keeps relapsing, it also causes certain damage to your body, because viral diseases have a certain impact on the body's immune function. This may lead to local cell cancer in women or men. For example, cervical cancer in women and penile cancer in men may be related to herpes simplex.

　　Genital herpes and fertility

　　This disease has a relatively large psychological impact on people. Its impact on fertility is mainly reflected in the fact that it can cause premature birth or miscarriage in some female patients, but the probability is not high, only 2-3%. Although it is not particularly high, it should still attract everyone's attention.

　　Fourth, syphilis

　　It is what was called flower or willow disease in the past. This disease is very destructive to the human body. In the past, STDs were considered difficult to cure. After the invention of penicillin, this disease became less scary.

　　Syphilis is divided into three stages. The early stage is called primary syphilis, which is called chancre. It mainly manifests as an ulcer in the genital area. This kind of ulcer is generally not painful or itchy, relatively clean, and relatively hard when touched by hands. Chancre can be cured without treatment.

　　Various syphilis rashes will appear in the second stage, which can be papules, macules, pustules, with or without dandruff. Therefore, some medical scientists call syphilis a simulation master, which means that syphilis can simulate various skin diseases, so misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis may occur in clinical practice. Everyone must pay attention to this.

　　Tertiary syphilis is late-stage syphilis, which generally occurs two years after infection with syphilis. Its damage is a multi-system damage to the human body's nerves, bones, eyes, and cardiovascular systems. In severe cases, it can lead to death. Such a disease is a systemic disease, not a simple infection of the mucous membranes and genitals. It is a disease that affects the whole body system. From this perspective, syphilis must attract everyone's attention.

　　The relationship between syphilis and fertility

　　Miscarriage and premature birth are particularly likely to occur in syphilis patients. If a woman does not know that she is infected with syphilis, she is likely to have miscarriage and premature birth during pregnancy, and it has already caused habitual abortion.

　　For example, a miscarriage occurred in the first pregnancy, and a miscarriage occurred in the second pregnancy. The gynecologist could not find out the cause after a long investigation. Later I found out that it was syphilis that easily caused habitual miscarriage.

　　Therefore, I suggest that you take a syphilis test before you prepare to have a child. This test is very simple. You only need to draw a tube of blood. It also takes very fast, and you can get it out in about 20 to 30 minutes.

　　There is also a child with congenital syphilis. If the mother is a syphilis patient, the fetus may be infected with syphilis in the mother's body. Children with congenital syphilis are often accompanied by intellectual disabilities, which poses a very serious challenge to our eugenics and education, and is also a huge harm to the child and the family. Therefore, if we do a syphilis test before pregnancy, we will avoid passing syphilis to the next generation.

　　Fifth, AIDS

　　AIDS can also cause premature birth and miscarriage. AIDS may also be passed on to the next generation. Its effects on fertility are similar to those of syphilis.

　　All in all, from the perspective of reproductive and reproductive health, in order to give birth to a healthy baby, we should first prevent the occurrence of various sexually transmitted diseases. If you are already a patient with sexually transmitted diseases, you must treat it in time, and under the guidance of a doctor, try to achieve eugenics and eugenics.
