All the sexually transmitted infections (STIs), formerly misnamed sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), are a series of pathologies that are generally transmitted after having sex with infected people.
En laboratories González perform different tests to diagnose sexually transmitted infections and thus be able to treat them in time.
The organisms (bacteria, viruses, or parasites) that cause sexually transmitted infections can be passed from one person to another through blood, semen, vaginal fluids, or other bodily fluids. Although there are times when these infections are transmitted in a non-sexual way, such as during pregnancy, from mother to child.
