Correct Answer
(D) Syphilis and Trichomoniasis
Solution & Explanation
Answer: (d) Syphilis and Trichomoniasis Solution: NCERT states that except for hepatitis-B, genital herpes and HIV infections, the other STIs are completely curable if detected early and treated properly. Syphilis and trichomoniasis fall in this curable group, while hepatitis-B, genital herpes, HIV (and the viral genital warts) are not easily curable, eliminating the other options. NCERT Reference: Reproductive Health, p.47 — "Except for hepatitis-B, genital herpes and HIV infections, other diseases are completely curable if detected early and treated properly."
