Should I get tested for sexually transmitted infections (STIs)?

Take this assessment to find out if you may have come into contact with an STI and whether you should get tested.

Step 1 of 15

6%

STIs are fairly common among sexually active individuals and most STIs won’t cause major harm to you, provided they are treated. Anyone who is sexually active can get an STI regardless of their age, sexual orientation, gender or race. Most people don’t experience any symptoms when they have an STI, which is why getting tested is really important.

Use this assessment to find out if you may have come into contact with an STI and whether you should get tested.

The results of this assessment are based on the answers you give to questions about your sexual activity and any symptoms that you may be experiencing. This assessment is only a tool to help you understand if you could have an STI and whether you should get tested. The results cannot tell you if you have an STI or not. The only way to know for sure if you have an STI is to get tested.

Note: In this quiz we use the terms vagina and penis. We recognize and respect the fact that some people use different terms to describe these parts of their body. If you visit Planned Parenthood Toronto’s clinic or talk to Teen Health Source volunteers, please let us know which terms you are most comfortable with.
