Let's see...you have HIV/AIDS, which attacks and weakens the immune system, genital warts/HPV, which, as the name suggests, causes warts on the genitals, gonorrhea, herpes, chlamydia, crabs. Those are the ones I can think of at the top of my head.

How to protect yourself: The only foolproof way is abstinence, but if you must have sex, use condoms (use both female and male condoms - yes, there are female condoms). However, condoms will not protect you 100%. Get tested for various STDs, and if you think you have one, go to the doctor to get it treated. Bacterial infections such as gonorrhea can be cured with antibiotics, while viral infections like HPV and HIV/AIDS cannot be cured, only treated.

You can participate in global awareness by hosting fundraisers.
