Sexually Transmitted Infections, HIV, and AIDS

Question 16 • DBN MI Health

What advice should you give Zahra? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
Isaac should be cleared by a doctor before he and Zahra engage in further sexual contact.
B
Zahra should get tested because she may also be infected.
C
Zahra does not need to get tested since she and Isaac have not actually had sex yet.
D
Zahra and Isaac should use a condom to prevent STI transmission even if they are only having oral sex.
E
Zahra does not need to see a doctor because she does not have any symptoms of an STI.

Explanation

Isaac should be evaluated and cleared by a doctor before they have further sexual contact, and Zahra should get tested because she may have been exposed to an STI. STIs can spread through oral sex, so using a condom can reduce the risk. Not having had intercourse does not rule out exposure, and some STIs cause no symptoms, so choices C and E are not good advice.
