Question 6 of 10 Abstinence is the only guaranteed way to avoid contracting an STD/STI. \[ \begin{array}{l}\text { A. True } \\ \text { B. False }\end{array} \]

Abstinence is indeed the only method that guarantees complete protection against sexually transmitted diseases and infections (STDs/STIs). When individuals choose not to engage in sexual activities, they eliminate the risk of exposure to infections that can be transmitted through sexual contact, which is a significant point to remember for health education and awareness. In real-world scenarios, while abstinence is the safest choice, many people engage in sexual activities. Therefore, understanding the importance of consistent use of protection, such as condoms, and regular STI screenings becomes vital for managing health in sexually active individuals. Promoting open discussions about sexual health can lead to more informed choices and reduced transmission rates.
