In Europe, the
risk of becoming infected is increasing for people who are sexually active.
Anyone who
engages in any kind of sexual activity without a condom should be aware of the
dangers of doing so, and be regularly tested for STIs.
There are three
main types of STIs:
1. viral
2. Bacterial
3. Parasitic
Viral infections
such as genital herpes or genital warts are treatable but cannot be cured,
which means a patient may suffer recurrent outbreaks.
