A person can have any of the sexually transmitted diseases without having symptoms. This lack of symptoms is particularly common in women, but both men and women can have any STD without symptoms.

STDs do not always have symptoms. For this reason, getting tested for STDs is an important strategy for protecting your health.
STDs may or may not show symptoms or signs. It all depends on the individual infected.

Can an STD cause urinary tract infections?

One reason STDs spread is because people think they can only be infected if they have sexual intercourse. That's wrong. A person can get some STDs, like herpes or genital warts, through skin-to-skin contact with an infected area or sore. Another myth about STDs is that you can't get them if you have oral or anal sex. That's also wrong because the viruses or bacteria that cause STDs can enter the body through tiny cuts or tears in the mouth and anus, as well as the genitals. STDs also spread easily because you can't tell whether someone has an infection. In fact, some people with STDs don't even know that they have them. These people are in danger of passing an infection on to their sex partners without even realizing it.
