Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) often present with mild symptoms that may go unnoticed. However, some signs—such as itching, irritation around the genital area, and painful intercourse—can be more obvious and uncomfortable.

Each STD has its own unique symptoms, and if left untreated, they can lead to serious health issues including infertility, lesions, and even certain types of cancer. That’s why it’s essential to consult a gynecologist at the earliest sign of any abnormal symptoms.

Regular STD testing is recommended—ideally once a year—even for those in committed relationships. The necessity of testing often depends on individual lifestyle factors such as the number of sexual partners and the use of protection. Please note that birth control pills do not protect against STDs.

If you have any concerns or suspect exposure, don’t wait. Early detection can make all the difference.
