Explanation:
STD is an acronym for sexually transmitted disease and it can be defined as diseases that are easily transmissible or contractable from another person through sexual intercourse. Thus, STD spread from an infected person to an uninfected person while engaging in unprotected sexual intercourse. Some examples of STDs are gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, HIV, etc.
HIV is an acronym for human immunodeficiency virus and it refers to a type of disease that destabilizes or destroy the immune system of a person, thus, making it impossible for antigens to effectively fight pathogens.
Generally, contracting STDs has a detrimental effect to a patient because it causes an opening (break) or sore in the body of the carrier (patient) and as such making them vulnerable to diseases that are spread through bodily fluids e.g human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), Hepatitis, staphylococcus, AIDS, etc.
Hebce, having a sexually transmitted disease (STD) increases your risk of contracting HIV.
