However, there are many ways to prevent transmitting them.
Why did this increase occur?
This uptick likely happened for a number of reasons. The report attributes the increase to a stigma around STI prevention in certain populations, decreasing condom use among groups like young people as well as gay and bisexual men, and budget cuts to sexual health programs across the country, which also impacted access to STI testing.
While the CDC notes that STIs like syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia can generally be treated effectively with antibiotics, not everyone has access to testing and treatment they need. And untreated STIs can come with some significant health risks: In addition to the risk of transmitting to a partner, they can also lead to infertility, ectopic pregnancy, and in some cases, a higher chance of developing HIV.
