It’s National STI Awareness Week (April 12-18), a time to focus on your s*xual health.

In 2024, reported cases of chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis declined 9% from the previous year, marking three years of progress. But there is still more to do. More than 2.2 million STIs were reported, and rates remain higher than a decade ago. Congenital syphilis, in particular, has seen a dramatic rise.

Regular testing, treatment, and prevention are key to staying healthy.

Find STI and HIV testing options in your area at sehdph.org/sti-hiv-testing and learn more about preventing STIs from the CDC: cdc.gov/sti/prevention
