Great questions! I do not believe there has been an increase in any specific population seeking testing. In my experience, about half of the individuals that present to clinic for a routine screening and test positive for chlamydia and/or gonorrhea are not having symptoms.

I like this file, lots of helpful info.
-
I just reviewed all the documents and found them useful. Now I have a question. What makes pregnant women at higher risk for STD/STI?
-
The pregnant woman who has an untreated STI/STD is placing her fetus at risk. Many of these germs can pass to the baby and cause harm to the baby, and therefore pregnancy is a higher risk category. I do not know of other rationales, maybe we will hear from someone else.
-
That makes sense, thanks.
