STDs
STDs also known as sexually transmitted diseases or sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are infections that are passed from person to person during sex. STDs are common. In fact, over half of all people get an STD by the age of 25. Many STDs show no signs or symptoms, so a lot of people who have an STD don’t actually know it. The best way to know if you or your partner has an STD is to get tested.
