    This document discusses signs and symptoms of sexually transmitted infections, the importance of condom use, and how to manage STIs. Some signs of STIs include discharge or pain during urination for men and discharge or pelvic pain for women. While some STIs may not show signs, using condoms can prevent transmission of STIs and HIV. It is important for both partners to seek treatment at the same time to avoid reinfection and for untreated STIs to be cured, as they can lead to serious illness or infertility if left untreated.
