You might think you've got the lowdown on STIs, but prepare for your perceptions to be flipped upside down. I'm Dr. Tiffany Montgomery, and today I'm sitting down with my co-host, Nick Cuevas, to dive into the commonly misunderstood world of sexually transmitted infections. Now, did you know that one in five Americans have an STI according to the CDC? Today we're stripping down the misconceptions, debunking myths, and getting real about this topic.
Are STIs always symptomatic? Not necessarily—an STI can be silent yet still potent. So, how does this affect us and our partners? Let's talk about it. We're also dipping our toes into the fascinating pool of genetics—can you believe some genes can make you more susceptible to STIs? But don't fret, we're also sharing about the magic of DNA testing for sexual health. These kits are discreet, user-friendly, and pain-free—putting power back into your hands. So, let's unmask STIs together and foster a healthier, more open future. Let's navigate this journey together, armed with knowledge and understanding, and take charge of our sexual health. No more fear, no more stigma, just pure, empowering facts.
