Gonorrhoea
Gonorrhoea is a bacterial sexually transmitted infection (STI). It is spread through vaginal, anal or oral sex, or by the fingers and hands from the genitals to the eyes. It is less common in the general community than other STIs such as chlamydia. Gonorrhoea can infect the throat, rectum (back passage), urethra (urine passage), cervix (neck of the womb) and eyes.
Genital Warts
Genital warts are a very common sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV).
Genital warts are spread by skin to skin contact during vaginal, anal or oral sex. There are over 100 types of HPV that can infect human skin. About 40 of these types of HPV infect the skin of the genital area including the penis, vagina or anus and two main types that cause genital warts.
Chlamydia
Chlamydia is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by a bacteria. It affects both men and women. Most people with chlamydia do not have symptoms. This means you can pass the infection to a partner without knowing it. Having a regular sexual health check-up can help you find out if you have chlamydia.
HIV
HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that damages the body's immune system making it hard to fight off infections. Over time, if untreated, HIV infection can develop into AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) where the immune system is no longer able to fend off infections.
