Infections
There are many infections a woman can get in her genital
area. Germs that live in or on a person's genitals cause
these diseases. These germs can be passed from one person
to another during sex. Practicing safer sex every time can
help you avoid these infections.
These are some common symptoms of genital infections:
- unusual discharge from the vagina
This may be a fluid or mucus that is bloody, looks cloudy
or smells bad.
- sores
- itching
- painful intercourse
- frequent or painful urination
Even if you don't have any of these symptoms you can still
have an infection. Even infections that have no symptoms
can cause damage and may affect your ability to have children.
Practice safer sex and have regular check-ups to protect
your health.
