What are STDs?

Getting tested for sexually transmitted diseases, and ensuring that any new potential partners do the same is the best way to stay healthy. We know it’s not the easiest topic to discuss, but it is a conversation that could save your life.
Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STD’s), can be contracted through sexual contact from person – to – person in blood, semen, or vaginal and other bodily fluids. STD’s can also be transmitted without sexual contact through blood transfusions, shared needles, or during pregnancy and/or childbirth, when a mother can pass a sexually transmitted disease to her child.
