The hard working LGV is caused from three strands of the bacterium, Chlamydia trachomatis. You can get LGV from person to person through direct contact with lesions, ulcers, or any other area where bacteria is located. Movement of the organisms happens during sexual penetration or skin to skin contact. This dangerous STD can be very hard to diagnose. But, the first sign is typically a small genital or rectal lesion with an incubation of about 3-30 days. Other signs include, tender lymph nodes in groin area or rectal bleeding and drainage from the rectum. During incubation, 3-30 days, you then realize if you have it or not. The symptoms will start to develop. If you don’t realize that you have LGV or you decide not to take care of it, it can lead to lymph nodes swelling in groin area and rapture causing permanent scarring. Also you can have pain around anus, drainage in rectum, and rectal bleeding that can lead to rectal scarring. Although very risky, LGV has no vaccine to prevent it but it does have an antibiotic. All doctors recommend that you take doxycycline, twice a day for 21 days. If you are unable to take doxycycline you can take erythromycin base or azithromycin. If you are pregnant you should avoid taking doxycycline. Now that you see all of the stuff that this small vicious STD can do to you, you can still avoid it. First off, you can be sexually abstinent. Also, you can use a female or male condom, limit the number of sex partners, or carefully wash genitals after sex.
