— How quickly do symptoms appear after infection?
— The incubation period for all diseases is different. If the manifestations of gonorrhea can be three to four days after infection, then syphilis – after several months. Therefore, people who often change sexual partners may find it difficult to remember where the disease might have come from. It is a myth that the morning after casual sex there will immediately be discharge from the genital tract.
— What does sexual transmission mean?
– This is any type of sex: vaginal, anal, oral. Any contact between the mucous membranes of an infected person and a healthy person leads to infection. It happens that the primary element of the infection is localized in the mouth or throat. These are rashes from the surface of which the pathogen is released. Then you can get infected through a kiss. If the mother has symptoms of the disease in her mouth, then when she licks the spoon and gives it to the child, then he will have a chance of getting sick. You can also become infected through the eyes. For example, if the sperm of an infected partner gets on the other person’s face. There is such a disease as ophthalmogonorrhea.
