You could have infection even if you’re not feeling any symptoms, so it’s a good idea to get yourself checked regularly. Make sure they check all the places you could have been exposed based on the kind of sex you’ve been having. If a partner tells you they have an STD, or you have symptoms like burning, itching, discharge, or a rash, call right away to schedule an appointment.
