How can I tell if I have an STI …??

          considerably, depending on the infection.
STIs can also have symptoms that are similar
to those of other diseases that have nothing
to do with sex.

  different

  periods
  Sores, warts, itching, pain, or swelling anywhere in your
  genital area, anus, or mouth.
  Burning, itching, or pain when peeing.
  Painless lumps anywhere in your genital area.
Continued …!!!

 If you have no symptoms, but are concerned
 that you may have been exposed to an STI, the
 only way to find out for sure is to be tested.
 Most STI tests are simple.
    After you’ve been tested, if either you or your
    partner have sex with a new partner (even
    once) it puts you both at risk for STI

  yearly check up and STI test even if you
  haven't sex for a while

Good Answers to excuses for not using

Excuse                           Answer
I don’t have one with me         To bad,, I’ll bring some next time, but for
                                 now, no condom, no sex.
Don’t you trust me ?              this isn’t about trust, it’s about being
                                 safe. Either of us could have an STI and
                                 not know it. We should get tested.
But you’re on the pill ?         The pill prevents pregnancy, condoms
                                 prevent STI. We’re going to use both!
I swear I don’t have AIDS !      Nobody knows for sure that they don’t
                                 have an STI. We could both have one
I don’t like the way the feel.   I feel better when I’m relaxed, and I’m a
                                 lot more relaxed when I’m not worried
                                 about get an STI
C’mon, just this once.           Once is all it takes . It’s too risky without
                                 protection

 Excuse                    Answer
 It spoils the mood.       Condoms don’t spoil the mood, but
                           getting pregnant or catching an STI sure
                           would!
 I’ll pull out in time !   That won’t protect us from STI or
                           pregnancy !
The Bottom Line …
• STI can spread even when there are no symptoms.
• NOT HAVING SEX is one way to avoid STI, if you have
  sex, use condom or oral dam every time is the most
  important thing you can do to protect yourself from STI
    • The only way to know if you have an STI is for you and
      your partner to be tested for all STI.
    • If you have any reason to think you might have been
      exposed to an STI, you need to get tested. Early
      treatment can make a big difference.

    • You don’t have to have sex to show someone
      you love them,

• You matter, your choices matter. You decided
  what’s right for you.
