More than 1 million STIs are found every day worldwide, often have no symptoms!
The Importance of Regular STDs Testing: Protecting Yourself
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs), sometimes referred to as sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), often have no symptoms. However, if left untreated there can be serious consequences including blindness and other neurologic manifestations, infertility, mother-to-child transmission or birth defects.
Any sexually active person can catch an STI, those who change partners frequently or do not use condoms are at higher risk. Previous successful treatment for an STI doesn’t make you immune to catching the infection again.
If you are sexually active, getting tested for STDs is one of the most important things you can do to protect your health.
Common STDs Symptoms
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) refer to diseases that are transmitted through sexual activity. Common examples include gonorrhea, syphilis, genital herpes, and HIV/AIDS.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Different STIs have vary by the type of symptoms, some may have no symptoms in some cases, and some symptoms may be particularly difficult to detect. Common symptoms of STIs include:
- Abnormal genital discharge from penis
- Vaginal odor
- Pain or discomfort during urination
- Genital rash, ulcers, blisters, or warts
- Genital itching or irritation
- Blisters or sores in or around the mouth
STIs can be transmitted through skin-to-skin contact and bodily fluids, so any type of sexual activity can potentially lead to an STI, including vaginal sex, anal sex, oral sex, manual stimulation, intimate skin-to-skin contact, and sharing sex toys. Therefore, it is recommended to use protective measures such as condoms.
No, you can still get infected with an STI again after being infected! Herpes and HIV are lifelong infections, while other STIs such as chlamydia and gonorrhea can be cured. There is no immunity after being infected with an STI, and if you have sexual contact with an infected person, you may get infected again.
You should get tested for STIs as soon as possible if found any of the following situations:
- Having multiple sexual partners
- Having sexual contact with someone who has or is suspected to have an STI
- Engaging in unprotected sex, without condom or experiencing condom broke during sex
- If you have suspected STI symptoms or have been diagnosed by a doctor to receive timely treatment
- Having new/multiple sexual partners should get tested annually
- Having new/multiple sexual partners should get tested annually

Compared with antigen and antibody tests, DNA detection not only offers a higher sensitivity and accuracy, but also shortens the testing time.
Benefits of DNA Testing:
- Require small amount of STD sample
- Accuracy and sensitivity higher than ag/ab test
- Detect multiple STIs simultaneously
More STDs Information
What causes it?
The bacterium called Treponema pallidum causes it.
What are the common symptoms?
According to the clinical manifestations at different stages. There are three different stages of syphilis and symptoms are similar for men and women.
Primary stage:
A painless sore (called a chancre) appears at the site of infection approximately 10-90 days after contact. The sore may appear on any part of the body, usually on the penis or vulva, but sometimes the sore will not be noticed, especially in women when the sore is inside the vagina.
Secondary stage:
During this time, a person may develop non-itchy rash on the palms of the hands, soles of the feet, the belly or the genitals. There may also be some flu-like symptoms. The symptoms in this stage will disappear in a few weeks even without treatment. However, this does not mean that the patient has recovered. In fact, the bacteria are still lurking inside the body.
Latent stage:
Tertiary stage (months to years):
The bacteria continue to invade the brain, the spinal cord and the heart, causing blindness, paralysis and even death.
Disregard of the disease stage, improperly treated pregnant woman can transmit the disease to the unborn baby, leading to serious consequences.
Incubation period
There may be no symptoms at all and is usually not contagious during this stage.
What test do I do if I have syphilis?
You need to be examined by a doctor and could use microscopic examination of the material from the sores or blood tests. The person(s) you have had sex with should also be tested for the disease.
What causes it?
The bacterium called Chlamydia trachomatis causes it which is the most common cause of non-gonococcal urethritis.
