Barrier methods work by blocking sperm from entering the uterus, and hormonal contraceptives work by preventing ovulation or changing the conditions in the uterus and cervix. IUDs are small, T-shaped devices that are inserted into the uterus, and sterilization is a form of permanent contraception. Natural family planning is a method of contraception that involves tracking your fertility signs and avoiding intercourse during the times in your cycle when you are most fertile.

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are infections that are passed from one person to another through sexual contact. While some STDs can be cured with antibiotics, many can have serious consequences, such as infertility and even death. It is important to understand how STDs are spread, the symptoms of STDs, and how they can be prevented.
How STDs Are Spread: STDs are typically spread through sexual contact, including vaginal, oral, or anal sex. However, some STDs, like herpes and HPV, can also be spread through skin-to-skin contact.
Symptoms of STDs: STDs don't always cause symptoms or may only cause mild symptoms. If there are symptoms, they could include: unusual discharge from the penis or vagina, sores or warts on the genital area, painful or frequent urination, itching and redness in the genital area, blisters or sores in or around the mouth, abnormal vaginal odor, anal itching, soreness, or bleeding, abdominal pain, and fever.
Diagnosis of STDs: If you are sexually active, you should talk to your healthcare provider about your risk for STDs and whether you need to be tested. Some STDs may be diagnosed during a physical exam or through microscopic examination of a sore or fluid swabbed from the vagina, penis, or anus. Blood tests can diagnose other types of STDs.
Treatment of STDs: Antibiotics can treat STDs caused by bacteria or parasites. There is no cure for STDs caused by viruses, but medicines can often help with the symptoms and lower your risk of spreading the infection.
Prevention of STDs: Correct usage of latex condoms greatly reduces, but does not completely eliminate, the risk of catching or spreading STDs. If your or your partner is allergic to latex, you can use polyurethane condoms. The most reliable way to avoid infection is to not have anal, vaginal, or oral sex. There are vaccines to prevent HPV and hepatitis B.
Sexually transmitted diseases are infections that are passed from one person to another through sexual contact. It is important to be aware of the symptoms of STDs, to get tested if you are at risk, and to get.
Reproductive health services are needed to help people plan their families, prevent unintended pregnancies, prevent and treat sexually transmitted infections, and to provide care for pregnant women and their babies. Improving access to reproductive health services, including family planning, is essential for reducing maternal and infant mortality, as well as for promoting gender equality. It is also important for promoting economic growth and reducing poverty.
It is important to discuss contraception with your partner and healthcare provider to ensure you’re using the method that best suits your lifestyle and needs.
