Which of the following sexually transmitted infections usually fails to reveal obvious symptoms in women? syphilis epididymitis

Lerok [7]

Answer: The sexually transmitted infection that usually fails to reveal obvious symptoms in women is syphilis.

Explanation: Syphilis is a sexually-transmitted infection, that is to say that it is a contagious disease spread by sexual activity or close contact with an infected person. The bacteria Treponema pallidum is the one that causes syphilis. Moreover, a woman that has syphilis may not feel nor see any symptoms, which means that, in some cases, syphilis' symptoms may not even be noticed.

Why is the simplest strategy for remaining alcohol-free simply to avoid situations where alcohol is present?

astraxan [27]

The simplest strategy for remaining alcohol-free is to avoid alcohol-based situations because you can't be tempted to drink alcohol if it is not around you and there is no chance for you to consume it. An 'out of sight, out of mind' principle works here - if it is not in your immediate frame of reference, you will not be tempted to think about it and then you will be less likely to consume it.
