title: Management of sexually transmissible disease. Part 1.
abstract: The appearance of AIDS and recent diagnostic and treatment advances has forced the medical profession to become more sophisticated in approaching sexually transmitted diseases. Effective prevention and quality care are fundamental to a sexual health consultation. Obtaining an accurate history on which to base prevention counselling is essential. Treatment of syphilis has not changed in recent years and is not included in this article.
