Teoretična izhodišča: Nekateri povzročitelji spolno prenosljivih bolezni ostanejo v našem telesu za vedno, zato je pomembno, da se znamo pravilno pred njimi zaščititi ter, da se izogibamo tveganim spolnim odnosom, pri katerih se lahko okužimo. Z raziskavo smo želeli ugotoviti ali so dijaki dovolj osveščeni o spolno prenosljivi bolezni genitalni herpes, ali poznajo možnosti za prenos okužbe ter, če poznajo zaščito pred njo. Raziskovalna metodologija: Raziskava je temeljila na kvantitativni metodologiji. Podatke smo pridobili s pomočjo anketnega vprašalnika, ki je vseboval 20 vprašanj. V raziskavi je sodelovalo 80 dijakov. Rezultati: Ugotovili smo, da dijaki nekaj znanja zagotovo imajo. Poznajo, da je genitalni herpes spolno prenosljiva bolezen in, da se lahko okužijo z nezaščitenim spolnim odnosom. Večina pozna kako se pravilno zaščititi pred okužbo, vendar sami kot zaščitno sredstvo pri spolnih odnosih ne uporabljajo samo kondoma, ampak še druge oblike, ki okužbe z genitalnim herpesom ne preprečujejo. Sklep: Pomembno je osveščati dijake še preden začnejo s spolnimi odnosi, da pridobijo znanje, kako pravilno zaščititi sebe in svoje partnerje. Zdravimo lahko samo znake genitalnega herpesa, zato je boljše okužbo preprečevati. Če pa pride do okužbe, je pomembno skrbeti za imunski sistem, saj je le ta tisti, ki okužbo omeji. Theoretical framework: Some causative agents of sexually transmitted diseases remain in the body indefinitely, so it is important that we protect ourselves from infection and avoid risky sexual intercourse, from which we can get infected. With the research we wanted to explore, if students are aware of sexually transmitted disease genital herpes, if they know how genital herpes is transmitted and how to prevent the infection. Research methodology: The survey was based on quantitative methodology. Data was collected using a questionnaire containing 20 questions. The study involved 80 students. Results: We found that students certainly have some knowledge. They know that genital herpes is a sexually transmitted disease and that you can get infected with unprotected sexual intercourse. Most students know how to properly protect themselves from infection. They use different kinds of protection, not only the condoms which are the only means of protection against sexual transmitted diseases. Conclusion: It is important to raise awareness among students, even before they start having sexual intercourse, so they gain knowledge how to properly protect themselves and their partners from infection. We can treat only signs of genital herpes, so it’s better to prevent the infection. If infection occurs, it is important to take care of the immune system, because it limits the infection.
