Currently, a great danger not only to human health, but even to his life, is hidden sexually transmitted infections. In medicine, "hidden infections" refers to diseases such as chlamydia, ureaplasma, mycoplasma, trichomoniasis, human papillomavirus, cytomegalovirus and genital herpes.
Unfortunately, neither men nor women are safe from such a serious problem. Even the presence of one or two sexual partners cannot protect against the occurrence of infections. A feature of such ailments is the absence of clearly expressed symptoms. That is why they are called hidden, because their carrier for a long time may not be aware of their state of health.
Quite often, latent infections in women who have existed in the body for a long time and did not make themselves felt, worsen during pregnancy, at a time when the immune system is especially weakened and the hormonal background changes dramatically. Therefore, many experts so insist that future parents undergo screening for latent infections before the conception of a child. After all, getting rid of them during pregnancy is much more difficult and this process can have negative consequences for the fetus.
Some latent infections in women pose a greater health hazard, others less. But still, any infectious sexual disease has a bad effect on the activity of the genitourinary system and serves as a favorable factor for the development of more serious diseases, which are sometimes difficult to treat.
Latent infections in women pose a high risk for an ectopic pregnancy. In addition, in the presence of genital infections, there is a risk of miscarriage or fetal freezing. Even with successful deliveries, complications often arise after them. Not all genital infections can harm the fetus. But diseases such as mycoplasma and ureoplasma lead to pathology of fetal development.
Such a phenomenon is considered common when one organism becomes a carrier of several infectious diseases at once . In this situation, there is a big load on him, without the timely intervention of doctors, he will not be able to cope with them for a long time, as a result of which serious complications often arise.
As a rule, the fight against many infections is carried out by introducing antibiotics and immunostimulants into the body. After a course of treatment, it is advisable to carry out a control check confirming complete recovery. Otherwise, it is necessary to resort to other, more serious methods of treatment.
Latent infections in women, the symptoms of which are almost never manifested, can still be noticed by slight itching or rashes on the skin in the genital area. Such subtle symptoms last for several minutes, so patients rarely notice them.
It is important to remember that latent infections make themselves felt, most likely affecting not the urogenital system of the human body, but the activity of completely different vital organs. Treatment of any of the infectious diseases should have a comprehensive and systematic approach, in which the patient must strictly follow all the instructions of the attending physician, otherwise recovery will not come soon. First of all, the specialist prescribes antibacterial drugs and vitamins that enhance the immunity of the sick person.
You should never let such serious illnesses drift or self-medicate, which can greatly harm the patient’s state of health. Recovery is possible only in a specialized clinic under the supervision of experienced specialists.
