Any time that a parasite invades the body and causes symptoms, you've got a parasitic disease. There are, however, many different parasitic diseases.
For instance:
Toxoplasmosis- Infection of the brain, caused by Toxoplasma gondii.
Giardiasis- Infection of the small intestine, caused by Giardia lamblia.
Enterobiasis- Intestinal infection by pinworms.
Ascariasis- Digestive tract infection by Ascaris lumbricoides.
Schistosomiasis- Variable infection caused by some form of Schistosoma parasite.
Leishmaniasis- Cutaneous/membranous invasion spread by sandfly bite.
In addition, to the person who previously answered "parisitosis", this is technically correct, but entirely unhelpful.

I have had a parasite for 3 years. My doctor told me that you pick it up by maybe eating raw meat, or not washing your hands after you use the bathroom. My doctor also put me on a special diet, and I couldn't eat sugar, dairy, wheat, or soy for 3 weeks. And it wasn't bad at all! I even found some of my new favorite foods! Hope this helps.

While tinea (ringworm, jock itch) is caused by a fungus and can be spread through sex, it is spread through any skin-to-skin contact, and isn't referred to as an STD.NoThere are no fungal STDs.
