As we mentioned in the first part, STDs so often ignored, are unfortunately very widespread with devastating effect, especially among black women.

. Gonorrhea is caused by a bacterium “Nesseria gonorrhea.” Contamination occurs through sexual contact (vaginal, anal or oral). The mother can transmit the infection during childbirth and in rare cases by instruments used during delivery, if not properly sterilized. The bacterium can also infect the throat during oral sex with an infected partner.

. Premenstrual Syndrome also called PMS or premenstrual tension is a physical and psychological malaise experienced by 85% women. PMS symptoms occur 1 to 2 weeks before your period (menstruation or monthly bleeding) starts. PMS can affect menstruating women of any age and the effect is different for each woman.
