How soon do Sexual Infections symptoms appear?

The timing with which sexual infection symptoms can develop is in the range of a few days or weeks, although such signs may in some cases appear late, up to a few months or even years later.
Therefore, it is worth remembering that, precisely because of the possibility that such symptoms do not appear at all, there is always a minimal chance of infection, if the sexual behaviors adopted have not always been 100% controlled. For this reason, it is important to go to a sexual health clinic, or to your general practitioner, for a completely free and confidential checkup.
