At King’s College Hospital London – Dubai, our dermatologists offer confidential diagnosis, testing and management of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and associated conditions, providing thorough, patient-focused care through evidence-based treatments in a private and supportive setting.
What is venereology?
Venereology is the branch of medicine which is concerned with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), also referred to as venereal diseases. Such infections are caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi, or parasites and are mainly transmitted by sexual contact.
Even though a number of sexually transmitted infections affect the genital region, they can also affect other parts of the body if not treated.
Common sexually transmitted infections include:
- Syphilis
- HIV infection
- Gonorrhea
- Genital scabies
- Granuloma inguinale
- Hepatitis B
- Candidiasis
- Human papillomavirus (HPV)
- Cytomegalovirus (CMV)
- Herpes simplex
- Chancroid
- Lymphogranuloma venereum
Getting an early diagnosis and receiving treatment helps to keep your health, lowers the chance of complications, and stops the disease from being passed on to other people.
Who would be an appropriate candidate for treatment by a venereologist?
You could get benefit from venereology treatment if you have symptoms which suggest a sexually transmitted infection or if you need confidential testing and a medical evaluation.
- Pain during urination
- Skin rashes
- Unusual genital discharge
- Abnormal vaginal bleeding
- Genital sores, blisters, or warts
- Warts around the genitals or anus
- Itching or irritation in the genital area
- Pain during sexual intercourse
- Swollen lymph nodes in the groin
In order to confirm the diagnosis and to decide on the most appropriate treatment, your dermatologist will carry out a physical examination and might suggest blood, urine, or fluid tests.
What happens during treatment?
The treatment begins with a confidential consultation and a comprehensive medical evaluation.
Once the infection has been diagnosed, your dermatologist will put together a tailored treatment plan. This treatment may involve:
- Antibiotics for bacterial infections such as gonorrhea, syphilis, and chlamydia
- Antiviral medications for viral infections such as HIV and herpes
- Antiparasitic medications for infections such as trichomoniasis
While you are receiving care, our team is committed to achieving an accurate diagnosis, providing effective treatment, educating you about your condition, and offering continuous support in order to safeguard your health and well-being.
What results can you expect?
Early diagnosis together with treatment is effective in managing sexually transmitted infections and helps to reduce the risk of long-term complications.
Benefits of treatment may include:
- Relief from infection-related symptoms
- Accurate diagnosis of the underlying condition
- Personalized treatment based on the specific infection
