STD
Individuals who have engaged in risky sexual behavior, including unprotected sex or sex with multiple partners, or those who are experiencing symptoms of a sexually transmitted infection (STI) are candidates for STD testing. The testing is used to identify the presence of an STI and to determine the appropriate treatment.
STD testing can help diagnose and treat STIs early, which can prevent the spread of infection to others and help manage the individual's health. It's important to discuss any concerns about STIs with a healthcare provider and to get tested regularly if engaging in risky sexual behavior or if experiencing symptoms of an STI.
