STIs or STDs (sexually transmitted diseases) are usually passed through sexual contact with an infected partner. They include many diseases such as HIV, chlamydia, gonorrhea, genital herpes, genital warts, hepatitis, syphilis, and others.

STDs are widespread – more than 2.5 million people in the U.S. are infected each year. Having a STI can make you more likely to get HIV. 

Talk about your testing needs with your health care provider.

Get Tested

Protect yourself and get tested right away if you think you have any symptoms, or think you’ve been exposed to an STD. Many STDs don’t have any symptoms, especially in women. We offer low or no-cost testing for chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and HIV.

To schedule an appointment for testing, call 727-824-6911.

Testing and Treatment

The Florida Department of Health in Pinellas County has STD clinics and programs for confidential testing and treatment at five of our health department locations. Your private doctor may also treat STDs.

If you don’t know where to get help, call us or your private health care provider for information. All information you give will be private and confidential.
