A patient tells the nurse that she knows all about sexually transmitted infections and proceeds to make the following statements. Which one is the only correct statement that the client makes?

Choice A rationaleBiologically, women are more susceptible to sexually transmitted infections (STIs) due to anatomical differences, such as a larger mucosal surface area, making this statement incorrect.Choice B rationaleMany STIs, such as chlamydia and gonorrhea, can be asymptomatic. This means a person can have an STI without showing signs or symptoms, making routine screening important.Choice C rationaleNot all STIs are curable. While bacterial STIs like syphilis and gonorrhea can be treated with antibiotics, viral STIs like herpes and HIV can only be managed, not cured.Choice D rationaleCondoms significantly reduce the risk of acquiring STIs but do not eliminate it entirely. They protect against fluid transmission but not necessarily from skin-to-skin contact infections like HPV.
