Venereal disease or also known as sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are diseases that can be transmitted through unprotected vaginal, oral and anal sex. In addition, the use of unsterile needles, childbirth and breastfeeding and blood transfusions also can become.
"Toilet seat is not a medium of transmission of sexually transmitted diseases," said Dr. Sophia Yen, MD, adolescent health specialist at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital in Palo Alto, California, as quoted by Health.com, on Thursday (17/06/2010).
It is also justified SpKK Dr. Samuel L. Simon, a specialist in skin and venereal from Omni International Hospital, Jakarta, in consultation detikHealth health.
"Infectious diseases are transmitted through unprotected sex could not be transmitted from a trip to the mall or a public toilet. If it really is so, surely would not anyone want a trip to the mall or use a public toilet seat," said the doctor who is also practicing Siloam Semanggi Specialist Clinic.
STDs can be caused by organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, and protozoa. The organisms that cause sexually transmitted disease or infection can not survive outside the body for long periods, especially on a hard surface and cold.
In addition, the organism also requires a certain environment to be developed, and this is not a toilet seat that is in public places.
Dr. Yen said, nothing to worry about the transmission of STDs is not a public toilet seat, but the contact between skin to skin or mouth to mouth. It is sometimes not too concerned, but also can transmit STDs.
Eg kissing, mouth to mouth contact can also transmit herpes. Kissing can also transmit the oral gonorrhea (gonorrhea) and chlamydia. But the chances of transmission through contact with mouth to mouth is not too large compared to the oral genital contact (oral sex).
Skin to skin contact can also transmit venereal disease, which is an infection of genital warts, herpes, genital scabies, and pubic lice.
