What does STD or STI mean?
Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), also known as sexually transmitted infections (STIs), are caused by either bacteria or viruses and are often contracted during sexual activities. While bacterial infections can be treated and cured e.g., Gonorrhoea, viral infections can be managed but are not usually cured e.g., HIV.
Why are STD tests important?
Are you sexually active? Or do you keep multiple sexual partners? Many people have an STD and don’t even know they do. In most cases, victims don’t show signs until after several weeks. In fact, most doctors prefer to use the word STIs because you might be infected without showing any disease symptoms. To this day the best defense is to use a condom during sexual activity and getting tested on a regular basis.
