The risk is going up because women aren't using condoms, not because of the hormones. I never heard anything so ridiculous.

I attended an STD conference at which doctors and researchers discussed the correlation between hormone levels in women and higher levels of STDs. The majority of women newly diagnosed with chlamydia are between 15 and 22. The number of new cases of chlamydia in women over 35 is very small. The doctors think that hormone levels are a possible factor, but they needed to do more research.
