Can I get an STI if my partner and I did not have sex?

You can still get an STI even if you do not have full sexual intercourse. While having unprotected vaginal, oral, or anal sex will put you at higher risk of contracting or spreading an STI, some infections can also be spread in other ways.

The Herpes Simplex Virus, Syphilis, and the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) can spread through skin-to-skin contact, such as coming into contact with a sore, wart, or skin blemish.  Other STIs, like HIV, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C, can be spread through any blood-to-blood contact.  This includes needle stick injuries, using unsterilised equipment, or sharing needles.

If you are concerned about a sexual encounter, whether or not you used protection, you should get an STI test. You can use our online chat to speak to one of our advisors or book online now.

What are the symptoms of an STI?

Most men and women do not have any symptoms when they have an STI.  Especially in the first few weeks and months after any new infection.  The only way to know if you have an STI is to get tested, this is why regular STI testing is important.  Better2Know can you help you to get tested at a sexual health clinic near you in Tököl.

When they do occur, common STI symptoms include:

• Unusual discharge from the vagina, penis, or anus

• Painful urination

• Pain during sexual intercourse

• Blemishes, such as sores, blisters, bumps, or rashes that appear on the genitals, rectum, or mouth

• Itching around the genital area

• Pain in the abdomen

• Flu-like symptoms, including fever and headaches

• Unusual weight loss

• In women: unusual vaginal bleeding, particularly after sex

If left untreated, STIs can lead to serious health problems such as infertility, discomfort, pelvic inflammatory disease, and certain types of cancer, in women, and reduced fertility, discomfort and epididymitis in men.
