    A. All of the above

Therefore, knowing your status helps in preventing the spread of STIs and seeking appropriate medical care if needed.

    A. Usually just a urine sample
    A. By appointment using the regular appointment line
    Explanation
    The correct answer options explain that a free STI test at the Health Center is confidential, meaning that the test results and personal information of the individual undergoing the test will be kept private. Additionally, the test is usually conducted using just a urine sample, making it a convenient and non-invasive procedure. Lastly, the test can be scheduled by making an appointment through the regular appointment line, indicating that it is a planned and organized process.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    Which common STIs might not have immediate, recognizable symptoms? (Select all that apply)

    • Genital warts

    • Chlamydia

    • Syphilis

    • Gonorrhea

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Chlamydia
    A. Gonorrhea
    Explanation
    Chlamydia and gonorrhea are common STIs that might not have immediate, recognizable symptoms. These infections can be asymptomatic, meaning that a person can be infected without experiencing any noticeable signs or symptoms. This is concerning because individuals who are unaware of their infection can unknowingly transmit the STI to their sexual partners. Regular testing and practicing safe sex are important to prevent the spread of these STIs.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Which of the following complications can STIs cause? (Select all that apply)

    • Some cancers

    • Infertility

    • Sexual organ dysfunction

    • Decrease in sexual desire

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Some cancers
    A. Infertility
    A. Sexual organ dysfunction
    Explanation
    STIs can cause some cancers because certain types of STIs, such as HPV, can lead to the development of cervical, anal, or oral cancer. Additionally, STIs like chlamydia and gonorrhea can cause infertility by damaging the reproductive organs, leading to blockages or scarring. Sexual organ dysfunction can also occur as a complication of STIs, as they can cause inflammation or damage to the genitals, leading to difficulties with sexual function. However, STIs typically do not directly cause a decrease in sexual desire, so this option is not a correct answer.
