It is important to get screened as soon as possible if you think you are at risk of having a sexual transmitted infection.

Sexual transmitted infections can be treated. The earlier you receive treatment, the better the outcome and the lesser the risk of serious complications.

Not all sexual transmitted infections have symptoms therefore, if you are sexually active, it is a good idea to go for regular screenings.
