STD Exposure ICD-10-CM Codes | 2023

Besides knowing a sex partner’s sexual health history beforehand, it’s best to practice safe sex always and use condoms, dental dams, or latex/nitrile gloves.

It’s best to see a healthcare professional regularly to get checked for STDs because they are often asymptomatic. If a person has flu-like symptoms, genital sores, and discharge, they might have an STD.

The most common STDs are chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and herpes.
