Abstract

Rise in the rate of STI cases in the Philippines has been tremendously seen throughout the past few years.  In regards to this, it appears that there is a persisting stigma associated with STIs, which has significant effects on spreading awareness and acquiring knowledge about the issue at hand. In relation to this, the study aimed to assess the respondents' knowledge regarding Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs)  and their lived experiences.The researchers used a convenient sampling method and limited it to the people who acquired, recovered from, or were undergoing medical treatment in STIs, and who lived in the province of Rizal. A total of six (6) respondents were gathered by the means of a 'call for respondents' poster in social media, specifically, Facebook. Then the researchers use a mixed method using a structured modified questionnaire and semi-structured interview to assess the knowledge level of the respondents on STIs.After garnering data, results showed that unprotected sex is the most prominent mode of transmission that each respondent has done before acquiring STI. In general, respondents have a “Moderate” knowledge level on STIs with an MPS of 65.28% (f=235).Therefore, the results indicate that the individuals' knowledge regarding Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) is significant to their lived experiences by the assessment of the respondents' knowledge. Furthermore, information dissemination, education, and counseling can substantially improve people's ability to recognize the symptoms of STIs, increase their likelihood of seeking treatment, and encourage a sexual partner to do the same.
