Sexually Transmitted Infections
Sexually Transmitted Infections are infections that are transmitted through sexual activity from one partner to another. Common STIs include chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis, and HIV amongst others. One may experience little to no symptoms, however if left untreated, this can lead to complications such as issues with fertility, or even result in life-threatening infections.
