Some common examples of STIs include chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, HIV/AIDS, herpes, and HPV.

Contracting an STI can have various impacts on an individual's life, including physical discomfort, emotional distress, stigma, changes in relationships, and potential long-term health complications such as infertility or an increased risk of certain cancers.

STIs can have consequences on families such as emotional distress, financial strain due to medical expenses, changes in family dynamics, and the need for caregiving and support for affected family members.

To address the spread of STIs in society, measures such as comprehensive sex education, access to affordable and confidential healthcare services, promotion of safer sex practices (e.g., condom use), regular testing and screening for STIs, destigmatization efforts, and community awareness campaigns can be implemented.
