&lt;p id=&quot;mntl-sc-block_1-0&quot; class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;A lot of people believe that they know they have a&amp;nbsp;sexually transmitted disease (STD)&amp;nbsp;because they notice any STD symptoms. Sadly, that isn&#39;t so. The incredible frequency of&amp;nbsp;asymptomatic&amp;nbsp;STDs is one of the factors that makes STDs so common.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p id=&quot;mntl-sc-block_1-0-1&quot; class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;The truth is, when STD awareness is based on symptoms alone, most people with a sexually transmitted disease don&#39;t even know that they are sick. It is not uncommon for someone to be infected but have no&amp;nbsp;STD symptoms. In other words, they are asymptomatic&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p id=&quot;mntl-sc-block_1-0-2&quot; class=&quot;comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;Asymptomatic STDs are more common than not.&amp;nbsp;There is a very high prevalence of symptom-free STD infections. People can be, and often are, infected with an STD for many years without knowing it. During that time, if they&#39;re not careful, they can pass their disease on to some or all of their sex partners.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;STDs are not transmitted every time people have sex, but they can spread rapidly. For example, if an infected person engages in unprotected sex with a new partner each year, and each of those partners does the same, the original person could potentially pass their STD to over 1,000 individuals in just 10 years.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #99ccff;&quot;&gt;If each person has unprotected sex with two new partners annually, that number rises to more than 59,000. There are 20 million new STD cases reported each year in the USA.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
