What causes STIs?
STIs are usually caused by contracting certain pathogens through unprotected vaginal, anal, and oral sex with an infected person. You can also get a sexually transmitted infection by sharing sex toys with an infected person.
If you are concerned about a recent sexual encounter you had, it is important to get tested to protect your sexual health.

What is the difference between HIV and AIDS?
Many people get confused about the difference between HIV and AIDS.
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus that you can get through sex and blood-to-blood contact, like blood transfusions and needle stick injuries.
Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), on the other hand, refers to conditions caused by a long-term HIV infection. When you have AIDS, your immune system becomes extremely compromised, leaving you vulnerable to opportunistic infections.
HIV testing can be conducted through a blood test using a single sample. Book your blood test at a Cape Town clinic near you on the map above to find out more about your HIV status.
