Chlamydia Treatment
Chlamydia can easily be treated and cured with antibiotics. Persons with Chlamydia should abstain from sexual intercourse until they and their sex partners have completed treatment, otherwise re-infection is possible.

Gonorrhea Treatment
Gonorrhea can successfully be cured by several antibiotics. Because many people with Gonorrhea also have Chlamydia antibiotics are usually given together. Persons with Gonorrhea should be tested for other STDs.

It is important to take all of the medication prescribed to cure gonorrhea. Although medication will stop the infection, it will not repair any permanent damage done by the disease. People who have had gonorrhea and have been treated can get the disease again if they have sexual contact with persons infected with gonorrhea. If a person’s symptoms continue even after receiving treatment, he or she should return to a doctor to be reevaluated.

Syphilis is easy to cure in its early stages. Usually a single injection of the antibiotic penicillin will cure a person who has had Syphilis less than a year. For people who are allergic to penicillin, other antibiotics are available to treat syphilis. There are no home remedies or over-the-counter drugs that will cure syphilis. Treatment will kill the syphilis bacterium and prevent further damage, but it will not repair damage already done.

If left untreated Syphilis can cause blindness, brain damage, heart disease and even death!

Trichomonas Treatment
Trichomonas can usually be cured with prescription drugs given my mouth in a single dose. The symptoms of trichomonas in infected men may disappear within a few weeks without treatment. However, an infected man, even a man who has never had symptoms or whose symptoms have stopped, can continue to infect or re-infect a female partner until he has been treated. Therefore, both partners should be treated at the same time to eliminate the parasite.
