The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that half of the 20 million new STIs that occur each year in the United States affect youth between the ages of 15 and 24 years.1 Globally, the burden of STIs is also high, with 357 million cases annually of syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, and trichomoniasis alone.2 Aside from chlamydia and trichomoniasis, rates of most STIs are higher among men who have sex with men (MSM) than among men who have sex with women (MSW).
