Can STIs be prevented?

Yes, STIs can be prevented. Practice abstinence by avoiding sexual activity if you are single. Save sex until marriage. Be faithful to one uninfected partner for the rest of your life. This is truly the only way to avoid the risk of an infection. There are also a number of ways to reduce the risk of infection. Wait to have sex until you are in a faithful lifelong relationship. The fewer people you have sex with, the lower your risk of getting STIs. Correct and consistent condom use can also reduce (but not eliminate) your risk of getting most STIs.
