Sexually transmitted infections:
According to the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF), all sexually active adults at increased risk for sexually transmitted infections are recommended to have high-intensity behavioral counseling to prevent these infections. According to the USPSTF, adults with current sexually transmitted infections or within the past year are considered to be at increased risk for future sexually transmitted infections. They are also considered increased risk by the USPSTF if adults have multiple current sexual partners or if the medical practice population has a high rate of sexually transmitted infections. Routine gonorrhea screening in men and women at low risk of infection is recommended against by the USPSTF. (37,49)
