A test from your healthcare provider may be the only sure way to tell if you are infected.
If you do have symptoms, they may appear right away, or they might not show up for weeks or even months. They might come and go. Even if the symptoms disappear, you may still have an STI.
Some STI symptoms include the following:
Women
Men
Not everyone with an STI has symptoms. Get checked if you've had sex with a new partner without using a condom, if you or your sexual partner have had sex with someone else without using a condom, and/or if the person you have sex with has any symptoms.
