What are STDs?

STDs (sexually transmitted diseases), also known as STIs (sexually transmitted infections), are among the most common viral, bacterial, and parasitic infectious diseases in the United States.  STDs can be contracted through any sexual contact involving the genitals, mouth, or anus.  Some STDs such as HIV, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, and Hepatitis are spread through infected blood and/or bodily fluids.  Others, such as Herpes and Syphilis are spread through skin to skin contact with an infected area.  If left untreated, some STDs can cause serious long-term health issues such as infertility, liver disease, heart disease, arthritis, and a weakened immune system.  Some, such as HIV, can develop into potentially fatal complications.  Early detection and treatment are key to minimizing the impact of STDs on the health of both you and your partners.   

Why do I need STD testing?

Identifying an STD just based on symptoms can be difficult because the symptoms for most common STDs are inconsistent.  Not everyone will experience the same symptoms at the same time.  Some people will experience very mild symptoms or no symptoms at all.  It is possible to have an  STD for years without realizing it.  But during that time, the infection may be quietly undermining your health.  STDs are easy to spread and you can transmit them to your partners, endangering their health, even if you don't experience any outward signs.  STD testing is necessary for an accurate diagnosis.  Lab testing can identify sexually transmitted infections whether they are causing symptoms or not.  Once an infection is identified, you can work with your doctor to determine the appropriate treatment or follow-up.

Who should get STD testing?

Getting periodically tested for common STDs is an important part of preventative healthcare for any sexually active adult.  For most people, a yearly check is recommended.  People who engage in higher-risk behavior such as unprotected sex, sex with multiple partners, or sharing needles for intravenous drug use should get tested more frequently.  If you experience any unusual symptoms which may be related to an STD it is a good idea to get tested and find out what is going on.  If a current or past partner informs you that they have tested positive for an STD, you should get tested yourself.  Remember that any positive results should be discussed with a doctor.  Talking to a medical professional can help make sure that you take the proper steps to protect your health.
