Bioethics and sexually transmitted diseases
INTRODUCTION
Ethics, a fundamental pillar in the foundations of our societies, is the one that has tried to form the conditions and balance of the development of our principles, this, as we acquired greater reasoning, we were defining them as laws, thus creating a world of rights that would give The same opportunities to have a full and fair life, thus stopping the abuses of the ancient governments, is a dictatorship or corrupt monarchy, thus giving a radical change in the way in which a society decides to choose how to take actions.
Sexuality is one of the most primitive features that remain today in our species, manifesting physically and psychologically in the men and women who have stepped on the planet Earth throughout its history, this, at first, only had a single Objective, procreate, all with the purpose of preserving the species, over the years sexuality has taken different meanings in history, each era gave meaning to this instinct, each ideal marked by the ideals of its society, now Sexuality is something that is done more than to preserve history, then, the sexual act is done merely for pleasure, so now this factor would greatly influence behavior, self – esteem and intimate emotional communication before a couple.
In the modern world, there are sexually transmitted diseases, be it a parasite, fungus, bacteria or viruses, diseases that can be mortal if they are not treated in time, several of these have a solution while others can only be controlled, but what is it which makes these diseases spread?, Many times it is due to a lack of awareness on the part of those who suffer from some disease, so bioethics plays an important role in analyzing these actions. For this reason, throughout this work some causes will be shown by which people acquire or spread a disease, all from a bioethical, psychological and social perspective, as well as the relationship between bioethics and sexuality and their deficiencies in The health sector.
DEVELOPING
Sexual orientation
The concept of sexual orientation today is something that must be spoken in depth and with a greater care than it was in times ago, because we are talking about ideological positions that have been diversified, more and more, to the degree of having a range of different sexual orientations, which must deserve the respect of every person, since having a different orientation to others should not alter the dignity of said person, since, not only is there being said of satisfying or not satisfying or not Preference, these convictions cannot be measured by people, especially if someone of conservative ideology is being treated, then, if a value judgment was committed, with the desire to affect a third party, it would be committing moral damage Towards the person. (Benavides-Zúñiga, 2017)
Sex education
Traditionally, everything that entails sexual education in adolescents begins at home, teaching basic things such as breast development and menstruation in women or the appearance of beautiful in male, are things that are told that they are discussed between the Family, but, when talking about a sexual context, sexual education in the home looks limited, because it is limited by the shame that adolescents have before their parents as well as the discomfort or ignorance that parents present to the subject, That without counting the generational ideals that parents have, so, in educational institutions, young people are being educated in sexuality, although that does not prevent a certain population of the parents from prohibiting their teaching, either for religious reasons or Morales, who in the end, all they cause is to compromise adolescent’s sexual education with questions about his body.
Social panorama
In our society, the morality of an act will depend on the effect it has on the dignity of a person, so sexual acts will follow these norms, since this will depend on the knowledge, freedom and will of a person To be able to do it with whom I wished, this is where the principles of malevolent and no maleficence are involved, since these will establish the limits of autonomy.
Sexually transmitted diseases, do not distinction age, race sex, or social class, this causes an unfavorable social impact, because prejudices begin to be generated on affected people, thus affecting their labor, intellectual and procreation development.
Sexually transmitted diseases
Sexually transmitted diseases in the modern world is something that has a little more controlled than years ago, because, with the progress of medicine and pharmacology, medications and treatments capable of recovering a normal lifestyle have been developed in the normal lifestyle in the Patient life, however, while ITS are not prioritized as a global health problem, progress cannot be made in all countries in the best possible way.
In general, the socioeconomic level is recognized as the most weight element at the health level. However, neither the economic level nor the social class by themselves define the quality and nature of the role and status in society properly, which are critical determinants of health, so it will not matter that so much progress exists in Health Sciences, if a good intervention in public health fields are not correctly raised.
Social class and health sector
Social classes are an important factor to better organize the spread of a disease in a certain sector, it is true that an STD does not distinguish social classes or other human classification, but it is a fact that each social class can present a different level of education Therefore, there is more likely that there are a greater number of sick people in a sector that does not have a complete sexual education, falling into ignorance, however, the health sector has programs that involve taking sexual education to areas where , depending on certain results, as a greater number of patients by some STDs or an increased amount of pregnancies at an early age, they can talk about the correct use of condoms and the risks they face for not using a contraceptive method, It should be clarified that using a contraceptive method does not save you from contracting an STD, except for those who are barrier.
The magnitude of the problem of STDs, and its firm association with the transmission of HIV, highlights the need to investigate new and innovative approaches to prevent and control its propagation. One of those approaches is the adoption of the "set of public health measures". The set of measures for the control of STDs comprises the following elements:
- Promotion of safer sexual behavior;
- Integration of the control of STDs into primary health care and other health care services;
- Provision of specific services for populations that run more risk
- Early detection of asymptomatic and symptomatic infections.
It is not expected that in a short time all this problem can be solved, since very important aspects such as the region with which it is being spent, whether because of its language, or its educational level, is being involved, the fact that there is ignorance in issues of sexual health, puts at risk not only a specific sector, but also puts at risk a larger population, so it is a problem that has an Enrome challenge for fighting.
Psychology of the patient
Health psychology is the product of a new way of thought in health, which considers the psychosocial dimension in the health-disease process at the conceptual, methodological levels and in the organization of population care services. It has been a natural result of the limitations of the biomedical model, of the failure of health systems with a restrictive and decontextualizing conception of health and the possibility that more and more opens to understand how social and personal variables mediate this process ( Libertad, 2003).
Suffering an STD has very deep consequences with the psychology of people, because these, depending on the disease, will have different thoughts or ideas in terms of their person, for example, people who suffer from HIV-AIDA, after the diagnosis of the disease , the individual and family begin a process of assimilation and psychological coping that, depending on personal and social resources, can lead to more or less acute and less serious problems and/or disorders: depressive or anxiety disorders, with ideas or not of Suicide, adaptive disorders, identity disorders, symptoms of self-rejection, guilt, decrease in self-esteem, alterations in sex-affective relationships, etc. Socio-labor difficulties can also occur, due to health problems, such as discrimination in the field of work, a tendency to social isolation (thus reducing contacts with the social and family network), etc.
On a psychological level, this is a great obstacle and an important source of mental disorders, since the person at the moment needs to express and ventilate emotionally to be able to overcome and assimilate the diagnosis of the disease. In this sense, the acceptance and normalization at the psychological level of these individuals is practically impossible, if they are not given the place and space where this emotional download can be made.
