Abstract

Travelers returning from international destinations may have particular concerns regarding their risk of having acquired sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). The authors review diagnosis, treatment, and special considerations regarding viral, bacterial and protozoan STDs in the international traveler. Diseases that mimic STDs are presented. The authors also discuss the importance of preventative measures and pre-travel counseling.
