Be informed about STIs
Be informed about sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and receive the best treatment as soon as possible.
Contracting an STI can be nerve wracking and scary, but STIs are far more common than you think.
Get the most up to date information on STI testing and management to ensure you receive the best treatment.
What is resistance?
Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest threats to global health and affects the management of bacterial STIs.
Bacteria naturally adapt and become resistant to the antibiotic treatments we use to cure infections.
Antibiotic resistance is becoming more common, contributing to treatment failure in patients.
