A member asked:
Can you tell me if stds can be tranmitted only from person to person, how did the first person got it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
From someone else: You do not acquire a std from someone who has not been infected by a past partner. Sti's are well documented in history and travel easily from one partner to another.Some are not symptomatic during the disease, so it is possible for someone to pass it without knowing.
