Rethinking STIs: Innovations in Detection and Treatment
In this episode of Advancements in Gynecology: A Weekly Review, we dive into the alarming global rise in sexually transmitted infections and the new research that's reshaping how we screen, diagnose, and treat them. From surprising prevalence data in Vietnam’s HIV PrEP program to the promise of AI-assisted risk models, we explore key studies that highlight the urgent need for more targeted, site-specific, and collaborative approaches in STI care.
