Sexually Transmitted Infections

Eleven sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are currently legally notifiable in Ireland: ano-genital warts, chancroid, Chlamydia trachomatis, genital herpes simplex, gonorrhoea, granuloma inguinale, infectious hepatitis B, lymphogranuloma venereum, non-specific urethritis, syphilis and trichomoniasis. Aggregate data on the number of notified STIs from Departments of Public Health is collated quarterly. Departments of Public Health are notified of STIs mostly from STI clinics and some GPs.

Information on the location of STI clinics in Ireland is available from yoursexualhealth.ie. Go to links for further information on STIs.
