To prevent is better that to cure
Submit responseSexually transmitted diseases constitute a great group of diseases produced by different etiological agents, that they have in common that sexual relations are their principal line of transmission. This fact confers them the special connotation for their control we need to know and acting upon relations and sexual conducts of people. In the last 20 years, in our country has taken place a situation that complicates still more the actions of health about these diseases. While the liberalization in sexual relations becomes evident, with frequent changes of couples, the risk between the population is biggest, mainly between the young, in addition prejudices and limitations keep in the moments in which it proves to be necessary to talk about them. Possibly for these same circumstances, Sexually Transmitted Diseases constitute a serious problem of health all over the world. We have a program that tries to combine the real existent possibilities in the country, as of the present moment, as to diagnosis, treatment and epidemiologic handling of the cases, taking into account the most frequent diseases and the fact that they can produce bigger complications, but mainly those about which we consider more important in our area of health, specifically Syphilis and Blennorrhagia.
