Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) remain a significant burden on public health in the United States. Primary prevention counseling with early diagnosis and treatment remain the best methods to decrease the incidence of STIs.

This review discusses the most common STIs in the United States, focusing on clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment.
