Can a man get STD from a woman?

FAQ

Yes, it is possible for a man to contract sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) from a woman. STDs are infections that are spread through sexual contact, including vaginal, anal, or oral sex. If a woman has an STD and engages in sexual activity with a man, the man can become infected with the STD. The risk of transmission depends on various factors such as the type of STD, the specific sexual activity, the use of protection (such as condoms), and the overall health status of both individuals involved. It’s important to practice safe sex, which includes using condoms consistently and getting regular STD screenings, to reduce the risk of transmission and protect your sexual health. If you suspect that you may have been exposed to an STD, it’s essential to seek medical advice and get tested promptly.
