Objective:
To investigate the epidemic trend and features of male genital herpes (GH) in Tianjin.
Methods:
We statistically analyzed the epidemiological data of the male GH patients received at the Venereal Disease Clinic of Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from 2006 to 2010.
Results:
A total of 130 cases of male GH were reported from 2006 to 2010, ranging in age from 18 to 76 years, with 31.54% aged at 30-39 years. Most of the patients were factory workers (30.77%) and clerks (30.00%). Those with high school education accounted for 61.54%, and those with college education 32.31%. The sex partners of the patients were mostly waitresses (60%).
Conclusion:
The epidemic of GH has not been effectively controlled in Tianjin. New measures have to be developed targeting the changed epidemiological features of GH for better prevention and control of the disease.
