Get the 411 on STIs

---

Sexually transmitted infections are way more common than most people think.
Chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, HIV, and HPV are all out there—and many have no early symptoms.
Regular screening is the only way to know your status.

Quick Stat: The CDC estimates 1 in 5 people in the U.S. have an STI right now, many without knowing.

Even if you feel fine, these signals mean it’s time to test:

• Burning when you pee
   
• Unusual discharge or odor
   
• Sores, bumps, or rashes
   
• Pain during sex
   
• Fever or swollen glands
   

💡 Tip: Many STIs stay silent for months. Testing is key even when there are no symptoms.

  ❌ “I’d know if I had an STI.” 

✅ Most STIs can be symptom-free for a long time.   

❌ “Only people with lots of partners get STIs.” 

✅ Anyone who’s sexually active can get an STI—even in a long-term relationship.   

❌ “Two condoms at once = double protection.” 

✅ Using two can cause friction and breakage. One condom used correctly is best.   

❌ “If my partner tested negative, I’m safe too.” 

✅ You still need your own test. Timing and new exposures matter.

Ask yourself:

• Have I had a new partner in the past year?
   
• Have I ever had unprotected sex?
   
• Do I or my partner have multiple partners?
   
• Have I noticed any changes “down there”?
   
• Do I just want peace of mind?
   

If you said yes to even one, testing is a smart move.
