Can STDs be cured?

Sexually transmitted infections can cause damage to your overall health if they are left untreated. The good news is that most STIs can be completely cured, sometimes with just a single dose of medication.

Some sexually transmitted diseases, however, cannot be cured. But even these infections do not have to seriously harm your long-term health. Treatments for infections like Herpes, Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), and Hepatitis B can allow you to live a long, healthy life. The important thing is to get tested so you can take action and get treated.
