What are the symptoms of STIs?
Symptoms of Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) vary depending on which one you have. Most men and women with an STI do not have any symptoms. If you do have symptoms, then many different STIs share common symptoms, but need different treatment. You cannot diagnose an STI based on symptoms alone. It is important to get tested at your nearest sexual health clinic in Pasłęk if you have symptoms or have had sex with a new partner so that you can get the right treatment.
The most common symptoms of venereal disease include:
Unusual discharge from the penis, vagina, or anus
Pain during urination
Pain during sexual intercourse
Sores, blisters, bumps, or rashes on the genitals, rectum, or mouth
Itching or irritation around the genital area
Abdominal pain
Fever or flu-like symptoms
Swelling or tenderness in the genital area
Unexplained weight loss
In women: unusual vaginal bleeding, particularly after sex
If you experience any of these symptoms, it is important that you get tested. Better2Know provides you with confidential and convenient STI testing in Pasłęk. We will get you fast results to answer all your sexual health concerns.

What is the difference between a test and a screen?
An STI test is for when a patient is concerned about one infection. For example, if you have had unprotected sexual intercourse with a partner who later informs you that they have Chlamydia, you would want to get a Chlamydia test.
An STI screen is recommended by the Better2Know Pasłęk medical team. A screen involves checking for several different STIs simultaneously. Screens are best used when an individual has had sex with a new partner and wants to get peace of mind by having a more comprehensive look at their sexual health.
Regular STI testing and screening is an essential part of maintaining good sexual health and preventing the spread of sexually transmitted infections in Pasłęk.
Can I get an STI if I did not have sex?
Yes, it is possible to contract an STI without sexual intercourse. While sexual intercourse is the most common transmission method, some STIs can be contracted through non-sexual means. Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, Herpes and Syphilis are all high risk for being passed on through oral and anal sex. HIV is high risk for being passed on through anal sex.
Herpes and the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) can be spread through skin-to-skin contact. This means that any contact with a blister or sore can pass on the virus. HIV, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C can be contracted through any blood-to-blood contact, this includes sex, sharing needles, syringes, or other drug-injection equipment, needle stick injuries, through tears in the skin, or from mother to child during childbirth.
It is vital to understand that while sexual activity increases the risk of contracting an STI, abstaining from intercourse does not completely eliminate the risk. Regular STI testing with Better2Know in Pasłęk is recommended regardless of your sexual activity to ensure optimal sexual health.
