We’ve been warned about the dangers of unprotected sex, but even with all the reminders STDs are reaching record levels in the United States. According to the CDC, we’re in the midst of an STD epidemic with chlamydia leading the way. In fact, last year over 1.4 million chlamydia infections were reported (craaazy)!
