The prevalence of these diseases.
Despite these efforts, the combination of cultural, political and economic barriers prevented the government from succeeding significantly. The rise of the Reza Shah government in modern medicine without serious infrastructure in the Qajar era made it difficult to provide services to the population, with problems and constraints such as a lack of labor, especially in the provinces, a shortage of medicines and medical centers, and a lack of proper communications. In addition, cultural resistance, along with widespread lack of awareness and illiteracy of people who had difficulty accessing STD education services, were important reasons for the government's failure to control sexually transmitted diseases.
