STI Symptoms

STI Symptoms:

As you probably know by now, sexually transmitted infections can be silent and you might not know that you have one. 

It's important to get checked because, if they get left, then they can cause later problems. For example, chlamydia and gonorrhoea can cause problems for women trying to get pregnant (infertility). Gonorrhoea causes no symptoms in half of women and 10% of men.

Here are some symptoms of STIs but they don't automatically mean that you have an STI because they can be caused by other things as well. But it's better to checked out if you think that you are at risk.
