HIV and AIDS have a lot in common. Both are highly communicable diseases. They both affect different parts of the body and their modes of transmission are also very similar. This, however, does not mean that one can simply say that the other is a sexually transmitted disease (STD). For one thing, there is no evidence to support the idea that HIV is the cause of AIDS.
There is a difference between AIDS and HIV. Firstly, HIV is a retrovirus that is contracted through sexual intercourse. It is this virus that causes AIDs. When it enters the body, it may affect various organs or tissues. However, it cannot survive for long within the human body and eventually shuts down. This is why many people who do suffer from AIDS do not contract the disease through sexual contact.
Since AIDS is caused by a virus, it is therefore not transmitted through sexual activity at all. However, this does not mean that one can be sure of being uninfected if they have unprotected sexual activity. They can become infected with the disease through certain body fluids, such as blood, breast milk, urine, and semen. This is why testing for HIV and AIDS is recommended for everyone. Unprotected sex means having sexual relations with an HIV-infected person or with a person or a group who has HIV.
HIV and AIDS are transmitted through different means. The risk factors that increase the likelihood of contracting the disease are being HIV positive and having multiple sex partners. In women, the risk factor increases with the age at the time of becoming infected. The age of the male partner also plays a part in whether one contracts AIDS or HIV. Men who have sex with other men also increase their chances of contracting AIDS.
The only way to find out if you have either disease is to go to a doctor and get tested. Unfortunately, HIV and AIDS can not be cured, but there are ways of managing the symptoms and preventing the disease from progressing too far. By practicing safe sex, one can significantly lower their risk of infection. Safe sex, as well as other forms of sexual activity, must be done with partners who do not have HIV/AIDS. This is important since only one partner needs to provide the disease with a way to enter the body to begin its progression.
To learn more about HIV and AIDS, it is best to go online and do some research. There are many sites online where one can get information on the disease and about safe sex. Learning about HIV and AIDS is an important step in preventing this disease from infecting more people. Educating people about the disease is one of the most important things that people can do today to stop the spread of the disease and to keep everyone safer.
