Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are infections spread by sexual intercourse. Adolescents who initiate their sexual life early, experiment in sexual activities, and do not care about protecting their health are a risk group. The incidence of STDs has been increasing in the Czech Republic in recent years. Some of these diseases are compulsorily notifiable. Since 2011, there has been a gradual increase in the rates of gonococcal infection that have recently even exceeded those of syphilis infection. Between 2020 and 2022, it was gonococcal infection that had the highest rates in adolescents, followed by syphilis. The article particularly deals with STDs that are compulsorily notifiable.

Keywords: sexually transmitted diseases, genitalia, treatment.
