How can I prevent STIs in Manizales?
The only way to not have an STI in Manizales is to not have sex. Condoms, femidoms and dental dams can help to prevent STIs spreading, but they will not work all the time. Sometimes bodily fluids are exchanged before the condom (or other barrier method) is put on (or in) and sometimes they may break, or not be used properly.
Having only one sexual partner at a time and regular STI testing in Manizales can help to stop infections spreading. If you do test positive, you should let your sexual partners know so that they can also get tested and treated.
If you are worried that your condom did not work, or it has been over three to six months since your last STI test, you should get tested.
The earlier you get diagnosed; the sooner you can get treated. Call our Manizales helpline to book an STI screen at a sexual health clinic near you.
