Why do we care about STDs? • Cause up to 40% of infertility • Tubal damage, chronic pelvic pain, ectopic pregnancy • May result in fetal loss, preterm birth, stillbirth and infant infections • ↑ increase risk and spread of HIV-infection • MSM with rectal gonorrhea have 6x increased risk of HIV in next year • MSM with syphilis have 4-5x increased risk of HIV in next year
STD Prevention Strategy 2013 • Screen, Treat, Treat, Screen • SyndromicManagement • Education, condom promotion, vaccination (HPV, HBV)

External genital warts and cervical cancer screening • Women with external genital warts should undergo regular Pap screening as recommended for women without genital warts • Genital warts are not an indication for a change in the frequency of Pap test or for cervical colposcopy • No recommendations for sex partner management • No role for HPV typing in evaluation of genital warts in men or women

Key counseling messages in genital herpes 1. Herpes is common: 1 in 6 2. Infection is often asymptomatic 3. Transmission is sexual but often when partners are asymptomatic 4. Spread can be reduced with symptom recognition, avoidance of sex when symptomatic, condom use and suppressive therapy 5. Tell partners: most will cope

Suppressive Therapy Reduces Transmission • 743 source partners received valacyclovir; 741 received placebo over 8 months. • Daily valacyclovir reduced incidence • acquisition of symptomatic genital HSV-2 infection by 77%, 2.3% vs. 0.5% • acquisition of any HSV-2 infection by 50% , 3.8% vs 1.9% Corey L et al. NEJM, 2004.
Condoms Reduce HSV Transmission • 528 monogamous couples discordant for HSV-2 infection were followed for 18 months. • Condom use during more than 25% of sex acts was associated with 92% reduction in HSV-2 acquisition for women • 1862 persons in HSV-2 vaccine study followed for 18 months. • Condom use during more than 65% of sex acts was associated with a 34% reduction in HSV-2 acquisition in women, 41% reduction in men, and 58% in gay men.
