Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) has revolutionized the prevention of HIV infection, providing a highly effective means of reducing the risk of acquiring HIV among high-risk populations. However, the introduction and widespread use of PrEP have raised concerns about its impact on the incidence of other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). This review examines the current landscape of STIs in the era of PrEP, exploring the epidemiological trends, behavioral factors, and clinical implications. It also addresses the strategies needed to manage and mitigate the potential rise in STIs associated with PrEP use.
