H Pylori is found more often in poor contries in Asia and South America. It is often carried by the males and passed to the females through sex. It lives in the sperm and transfered to another person when the sperm enters the vagina or orally through the mouth. It is consider a std while it is active and untreated with medicine. No it is not curable.

Biopsy from the stomach lining is used among other tests. Treatment in some cases can be somewhat similar with the use of metronidazole and other antibiotics. It can take several treatments but unlike crohns disease, h. pylori is curable.
