Maternal health experts have urged women to take the prevention of sexually transmitted infections seriously, noting that they are more prone to them because of their anatomy.
According to the experts, women are more at risk of contracting STDs than men because the female genital tract has a wider surface area than those of men.
They also stressed that sexually transmitted diseases can have tremendous impact on women than men.
They noted that STDs can destroy the female reproductive system and cause infertility in women if left untreated.
