Here's what you need to know about the new, untreatable strain of gonorrhea.
The Center of Disease Control and Prevention has long suspected that gonorrhea, a common sexually transmitted disease, was becoming less and less susceptible to treatment. This week, their suspicions were confirmed when a new, untreatable gonorrhea strain was discovered in Japan.
Having an STD doesn't mean you have to sacrifice a healthy love life with your partner.
Millions of Americans each year are diagnosed with an STD. For most people, finding out that you have an STD may seem like devastating news, but it doesn't have to be.

Hi, I’m Dr. V. I’m not a real doctor, I just play one on the Internet. What I am is a lady, a lady who is a fool for love! And I love nothing more than sex. My deepest desires have happily led me on many adventures in the sack, but they have also, sadly, made me one of my gyno’s most valuable players. But I’ve lived to tell the tale(s)! So, from time to time, I will dish the dirt on everything from getting freaky to getting freaked out. Now, let’s get this party started…
After blathering on and on about anal sex, herpes sores, and stanky vajayjay’s, I, Dr. V, am going to say something that will really shock you! I have never, ever had sex without a condom. Ever. Not even once.
Binge drinking leaves women at a higher risk for STDs.
Science Daily is reporting something that any person that's ever been to a bar, nightclub, outdoor music festival, or co-educational college already knows; binge drinking women are more likely to get STDs and presumably pregnant. The study concluded that binge drinking women are more likely to engage in 'risky' sexual behavior than binge drinking men. Which sort of follows the old predatory male stereotype engendered by Steve Carrell's dangerous car ride with Leslie Mann (and Missy Elliot) in The 40 Year Old Virgin. Furthermore, hard drinking ladies are more likely to engage in anal sex than either booze hound dudes or women that don't drink. Also not a revelation but maybe sort of responsible in a really twisted way; number 2 chutes like mouths usually don't get pregnant. Unfortunately, they pick up disease at a pretty good clip. Which leads to Gonorrhea.
