In 1960, there were several recognized types of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including gonorrhea, syphilis, and chlamydia, though chlamydia was not widely identified until later. Other infections like herpes and trichomoniasis were also known but less understood at that time. The awareness and classification of STDs were not as comprehensive as today, with many infections still being studied or poorly understood. Overall, while the specific number can vary, the major STDs recognized by medical professionals included a handful of key infections.
