STI and an STD: What is the difference?
An STI is a Sexually Transmitted Infection, and STD is a Sexually Transmitted Disease. There is no difference between them. They both include HIV, Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, Syphilis, and Herpes, but Doctors have said that patients prefer to test and treat for an infection. So STI has become the more widespread word
