herpes hsv - 1
trichomoniasis

Syphilis is a sexually transmitted infection (STI). In its later stages (tertiary syphilis), it can cause serious damage to the heart (such as aortic aneurysm) and the brain (neurosyphilis, which can lead to dementia, meningitis, etc.). Herpes HSV - 1 mainly causes oral or genital herpes lesions. Trichomoniasis usually causes vaginal or urethral inflammation. Gonorrhea mainly affects the reproductive tract, eyes, throat, etc., and is less likely to cause heart and brain damage in the same way as late - stage syphilis.
