Sexually transmitted diseases are diseases caused by unsafe sex. Some STDs could possibly be deadly like HIV AIDS. You can live for a long time with AIDS if you treat it correctly, but it can't be cured. There are other STDs like herpes which is basically itchy sores around the genital area. That's not deadly at all, just uncomfortable. There are many other STDs. However, you can usually avoid them by having protected sex.

Whether STDs are deadly or not, it depends on the STD and whether they are treated. Untreated hepatitis, HIV and syphilis are fatal. Even warts and other lesions can turn into something fatal like cancer. However, depending on the STD, you can treat or cure it and reduce or stop the physical harm from it.

Answer:

Many STDs are fatal - some directly, some by causing cancer, some depending on which sex you are. Many like HIV/AIDS and syphilis get a lot of press some are not as well known. See link.

Most STDs are not life threatening, some of them can cause complications if they are not treated. The only STDs that can be life-threatening are HIV and HPV. Some types of HPV can cause Cervical cancer, if it's not treated then you can die from that.

Some STIs can cause death. Most, if treated, will not cause death. HIV can lower the immune system enough to let other infections cause death. Syphilis can also cause death in late, untreated stages.

Answer:

Most STDs are relatively harmless and can be cured or treated with medicine and/or antibiotics. HIV and AIDS, however, are an entirely different story. While the viruses themselves won't kill you, they severely weaken the body's immune system, thus lessening the ability for the body to fight other diseases and infection. Because of the severe depletion of the immune system, a cold, flu, or other disease that's relatively harmless to a normal person with a healthy immune system would be absolutely devastating to an HIV/AIDS affected system, possibly even leading to death.

Answer:

Absolutely, AIDS comes to mind as probably the most prominent killer STD. Many other STDs can lead to death if left untreated. Hepatitis C is another one that can lead to death.

Answer:

Yes, if it's not treated since you can be seriously ill. If you have it, make sure you inform your partner about it so they can take steps to protect themselves.
