Easy ways to help know if you’ve got a Sexually Transmitted Infection and if you are a Girl:

  • If your vaginal discharge goes thick
  • gooey
  • smelly
  • itchy
  • a different colour
  • into overdrive

...then you might have thrush or trichomoniasis.

  • If it hurts to pee, then think cystitis – but it could be thrush
  • If you get wart lumps around your vagina – think genital warts.
  • If your vagina itches or gets sore – think thrush.

Remember if you have one STI you could have others as well as they tend to hunt in packs. Watch out for Chlamydia, as 90% of women who have it don’t know. And always be wary of AIDS.

And then think: "Who did I get that from and how do I tell them to see a doctor about it?"

AIDS    chlamydia    crabs    cystitis    genital warts    gonorrhea    herpes    non-specific urethritis    thrush     trichomonas
