| description | Introduction: Sexually transmitted infections are a very present problem in society, mainly due to sexually risky behavior in young people and adolescents and a certain section of the population. These infections are transmitted through sexual intercourse of any kind, but mainly due to a lack of knowledge of the population, which is why the objective of this research is to describe the relationship between knowledge and current attitudes about sexually transmitted infections in women in Peru. Methodology: A bibliographic review was carried out using the articles retrieved from the PubMed, MEDLINE, and Scielo databases, in the period between July and August 2024. External articles were added to the time frame due to their importance for the writing of this article, without the research presenting an update percentage of less than 90%. A total of 30 references were selected, which specifically fit the topic in question, excluding those with possible biases in their methods. Development: Knowledge includes information about sexually transmitted infections, including their symptoms, types, and prevention measures. It is obtained through teaching, campaigns and specific programs on STIs, which include various pathologies of infectious etiology where sexual transmission is epidemiologically relevant. Conclusions: Sexually transmitted infections are entities that coexist with the daily life of the general population, an element that does not exclude Latin America and much less Peru. Adequate knowledge about the management of these infections by the female community, both students and gynecological-obstetric patients and health personnel, represents a vital need to avoid the risk of infection by pathologies of this nature |
