People who are unaware of their STI infection may unknowingly transmit the virus or bacteria to their sexual partners during intimate contact. Many STIs can be asymptomatic, meaning individuals may feel fine and have no noticeable symptoms while still being contagious. This lack of awareness can lead to increased spread of infections within the community, as infected individuals may not take necessary precautions or seek treatment. Regular testing and open communication about sexual health are essential to reduce this risk.
Although it is nearly always impossible to tell if your semen is infected (with and STIs etc.) without a scientific test, if you notice anything different to the norm (colour change - blood) we advise you visit your doctor for a test.
If infected people do not develop symptoms there will be no easy way to know who is infected, therefore, infected people will not be treated or quarantined and will be free to spread the disease to other people.
Stigma, shame, fear of judgment, fear of discrimination, and lack of confidentiality are common barriers that prevent people infected with STIs from seeking medical attention. These barriers can discourage individuals from getting tested, receiving treatment, and seeking support.

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) STIs are contracted through the exchange of blood, semen and vaginal fluids during sexual activity. They can also be passed on through skin on skin contact. STIs are caused by organisms like viruses, fungi, bacteria or parasites and require different kinds of medical treatment. Some STIs, such as chlamydia and gonorrhoea, can be cleared up completely through medical treatment. However, many people do not know that they have an STI and can not only pass it on to others, but also risk infertility if the STI is left untreated for too long. HIV and herpes are STIs that are not curable. However, some of the symptoms of these diseases can be treated. Protection during sexual activity is crucial for everyone, and even then, condoms are not 100 per cent guaranteed to protect you. If you are engaging in sexual activity or thinking of starting to, check with your doctor as to how you can protect yourself from STIs. Once sexually active, ensure that you visit the doctor at least once a year for a sexual health check-up.
Some people have a fear of them, others think they know what is best for others.
