The aim of this study was to determine the associations between risk behaviour and women's reported sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). All the women aged 19, 21, 23 and 25, residing in a specified housing area, were invited to answer a questionnaire regarding their sexual behaviour, smoking and alcohol consumption and previous history of STD. Of the 611 women participating, one out of 4 women had a history of at least one STD. In an univariate analysis, self-reported STD was found to be related to age, having more than 4 lifetime sexual partners, having practised intercourse at first date, inconsistent use of condoms, alcohol consumption of more than 3 bottles of wine per month and smoking. These factors were, however, not independent of each other and when subjected to a multivariate logistic regression analysis 2 factors, i.e. the lifetime number of sexual partners (more than 4 partners vs one; OR 7.94, (3.41-18.50)) and coitus on first date (practised more than once vs never, OR 2.99 (1.55-5.78)) emerged as independently associated with a previous STD.

Upon completion of this chapter, the reader should be able to demonstrate knowledge regarding the diagnosis and treatment of most prevalent sexual transmitted diseases in patients living with HIV infection, in order to decrease rate of transmission. Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are common in PLWH. Education and counseling on changes in sexual behaviors of patients with STDs and their sexual partners, identification of asymptomatically infection, and effective diagnosis and treatment form the cornerstone for prevention....

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in males is associated with various cancers, including cervical cancer in women and penile and bladder cancers in men. However, there is limited research on the prevalence and prevention of male HPV infection. Moreover, a rapid test that can prevent the increase in HPV infection is needed. In this study, the prevalence of sexually transmitted pathogen (STP) and HPV infection was analyzed using real-time polymerase chain reaction assay in random urine samples collected from asymptomatic male sexual partners of women with sexually transmitted diseases. Among 130 men, 65 (50.0%) had STP and 12 (9.23%) had HPV infection. There was no association between STP and HPV infection. Among 12 cases of HPV infection, three were HPV-16 single infections, six were multiple infections, including HPV-16, and three of other high-risk HPV infections. Our results suggest the need for STP testing, including HPV testing, in sexual partners of high-risk women with sexually transmitted diseases, even in men without clinical symptoms (asymptomatic). Further research should be conducted by diversifying urine samples. We report the most convenient method for HPV detection, and it is expected to be widely applied to prevent sexually transmitted diseases in men and women.

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) have been a public health issue in many developing countries, especially in Vietnam. Unsafe sex is considered to be one of the main causes to increase infected person. Therefore, we conducted a study on 3005 men who presented to the Andrology and Sexual Medicine Units of Hanoi Medical University Hospital to analyze the correlation between sexual behaviors and sexually transmitted diseases in men. The result showed that the mean age at first sex (AFS) was 21 years old. The median number of stable sexual partners was 2, the overall rate of STDs was 9.95%, in particular, the proportion of STDs in single men was higher than the married group (11.8% and 7.5%, p < 0.001), men having first intercourse before 25 years old had the rate of STDs was higher compared with their counterpart (21.1% vs. 13.2%, p = 0.002). Subjects with multiple unstable sexual partners were 2.11 times more likely to be infected with STDs, and the risk of infecting STDs would rise 6% for each additional sex partner.
