Five reasons to have an STI Test

Protecting your health is really important. Your healthcare routine includes (or should) regular trips to the dentist and optician, as well as pre-cancer checks as we get older. If you have different sexual partners you should also include STI tests.

Here are five reasons to get an STI Test in the Middle East.

1. The only way to know if you have an STI is to get tested. Most STIs do not have any symptoms.
2. STIs do not go away on their own. If you do have an STI, you need to get treatment.
3. Even if you have used condoms, they do not prevent STIs spreading from skin to skin contact in the genital area (Syphilis, Herpes, Genital Warts)
4. Oral sex can transmit STIs (Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea)
5. It is easier than you think. You can book your confidential appointment online.
