STD Test Dubai - Why It's Important to Get Tested

A STD test or Sexually Transmitted Infection is a medical examination that checks for infections or diseases transferred through sexual contact. The most common infections include HIV, herpes, chlamydia, genital warts, hepatitis A, B and C as well as gonorrhoea. The tests can be done using blood or a sample of a vaginal, anal or oral discharge. You can find more information about choosing a STD Test Dubai.

If an infection is diagnosed, a medical professional can prescribe medicine that will treat the disease and prevent further outbreaks. Some STIs can cause long term health problems like infertility, so it's important to get tested regularly. Using condoms during sex can also help reduce the risk of getting an STI.

Some STIs such as herpes, genital warts and hepatitis A, B and CD can remain in the body for a long time without producing any symptoms. That's why it's important to seek treatment early, as many STIs can be easily treated with antibiotics. If left untreated STIs can lead to serious complications such as pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), ectopic pregnancy, infertility and genital cancer.

In some cases, a woman who is infected with certain STIs can pass the disease to her fetus during childbirth or through the placenta. This can cause life threatening conditions such as herpes, syphilis and gonorrhoea in the baby or severe infertility.

A person can catch STIs through vaginal, anal or oral sex, or from genital contact with someone who has the disease. Some STIs, such as herpes, hepatitis A, hepatitis B and hepatitis C can be spread from mother to baby during pregnancy or delivery.
