Hookup Tip by Ti Jon
It may seem unbelievable, but in fact, 1 in 2 sexually active young people will get an STD by 25. And there’s only one person in the world that can protect you from becoming part of the statistic… yourself! But that doesn’t mean that you have to do it alone. Here’s some tips on how to stay healthy:
- Use Condoms: Condoms are one of the only birth control methods that help prevent STDs. Luckily, they are easily accessible and affordable -- and sometimes, even free!
- Talk to a Clinician about getting tested: Have you had unsafe sex in the past? It’s ok, because all STDs are treatable, and some are curable but you will only know if you get tested!
- Talk to your partner about getting tested: Your STD status needs to also be paired with your partner’s STD status. Talking with your partner is a great way to protect yourself.
