Global Estimates of Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs)

"Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are among the most common communicable conditions and affect the health and lives of people worldwide. More than 30 pathogens can be transmitted sexually, and individuals may have multiple infections at the same time.

Individuals who are infected with an STI may not be aware of their infection but can transmit the infection to others and may go on to develop long term and potentially fatal outcomes including cancer, chronic pelvic pain, ectopic pregnancies, and infertility.  STIs can also be transmitted vertically from mother to infant during pregnancy or at delivery with potential adverse consequences for the infant.  Infection with one STI may also facilitate the transmission of other STIs, including HIV.

The World Health Organization produces global and regional estimates of the prevalence and incidence of four of the most common curable STIs in adults 15 to 49 years of age: chlamydia (etiological agent: Chlamydia trachomatis), gonorrhoea (Neisseria gonorrhoeae) and trichomoniasis (Trichomonas vaginalis) every 4 to 5 years, and estimates of syphilis (Treponema pallidum) every 2 to 3 years."

New infections of chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis or trichomoniasis 374 million in adults 15 to 49

New infections of chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis or trichomoniasis over 1 million new cases per day

New infections of syphilis 8 million in adults 15 to 49 in 2022

Cases of congenital syphilis 700,000 in 2022

      The United Womens Foundation is dedicated to the well being and advancement of women. We believe that ensuring the health and safety of women is essential to their productivity and prosperity. When women succeed, everyone succeeds. This is especially true in many developing nations, where women are the primary providers for their families. It goes without saying that children whose parents are able to provide for them live better lives. 


      The United Womens Foundation aims to foster long lasting change through education, access much needed services, and community capacity building. Our work is based on research and stakeholder input. Our ultimate goal is to develop self-sustaining community based programs.
