Sexually Transmitted Disease    Love Carefully

  

Anyone who is sexually active is at risk for getting an STD, or STI (sexually transmitted disease or infection). One out of every four Americans contract an STI in their lifetime.

You are at a higher risk if you:

  • have sex with an infected partner

  • have more than one sexual partner

  • change partners often

  • have sex with someone who has had many sexual partners

  

Early diagnosis and treatment of STIs is very important. So is talking with your partner.

The Health District participates in surveillance and partner notification for STD services.
