उत्तर

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) get transferred from one individual to the other through sexual contact. Adolescents and young adults are at the most significant risk of acquiring these sexually transmitted diseases. Hence, creating awareness among adolescents regarding its aftereffects can prevent them from contracting STDs. The use of contraceptives, such as condoms, during intercourse can prevent the transfer of these diseases. Also, sex with unknown partners or multiple partners should be avoided, as they may have such diseases. Specialists should be consulted immediately in case of doubt to assure early detection and cure of the disease.
