Non-sexual transmission of sexually transmitted diseases in women

Aya Kawssan, Chirine Chawiche, Zahraa Mohammad Shamas, Hiba Hamdar.


Abstract
Non-sexual transmission routes contribute significantly to the prevalence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in women, STIs are often associated with sexual activity. This comprehensive review acknowledges the impact of different non-sexual STI transmission modes on different populations, emphasizing the need for a deeper understanding of transmission dynamics. Evidence suggests that several sexually transmitted infections (STIs), such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, herpes genitalis, and Trichomonas vaginalis, can be spread non-sexually. Research challenges preconceived notions by highlighting the significance of identifying these alternate pathways. For instance, intravenous drug users who share needles run a higher risk of contracting bloodborne infections. Moreover, the review identifies non-sexual routes of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) transmission, such as skin-to-skin contact, further broadening the scope of STI prevention strategies. Understanding non-sexual transmission is crucial for developing comprehensive preventive measures that extend beyond conventional sexual health programs. This shift in perspective underscores the complexity of STI transmission and the need for inclusive treatment strategies to mitigate the impact of these infections on various communities.

Key words: non-sexual transmission, STIs, intravenous drug use, contaminated objects, skin-to-skin contact, public health, prevention strategies, women’s health.
