What department is STD?

Generally speaking, STD refers to sexually transmitted diseases, which fall under the dermatology and sexually transmitted disease department. Sexually transmitted diseases are infections transmitted through sexual intercourse, with primary lesions typically occurring in the genital area. The details are as follows:

Sexually transmitted diseases are a group of common infectious diseases widely prevalent worldwide, including syphilis, gonorrhea, chancroid, lymphogranuloma venereum, and granuloma inguinale. These diseases usually have an incubation period. If a person has had unprotected or high-risk sexual activity, they should promptly visit a正规 hospital for examination. Some STDs may not present obvious symptoms and can only be detected through blood tests or analysis of secretions. Therefore, individuals suspected of having an STD should seek diagnosis and treatment at a dermatology and sexually transmitted disease clinic.

It is important to note that apart from large comprehensive tertiary hospitals, most medical facilities may not have a separate dermatology and sexually transmitted disease department; instead, they may only have a general dermatology department. In such cases, patients seeking care for STDs should register with the dermatology department.

If a patient experiences any discomfort or symptoms, it is recommended to seek timely medical attention at a hospital to avoid delays in diagnosis and treatment.
