Introduction

While running a clinic that is part of the MOH Anonymous HIV Screening Program, it is inevitable that I end up conducting a fair bit of HIV screening. In the course of my work I have noticed the rising rates of people contracting HIV.

That's is why I decided to publish this eBook to help the community at large to understand more about the importance of HIV screening and HIV treatment. With more awareness people can take precautionary measures to help prevent themselves from being infected with HIV.

It is very important for people to know their HIV status, as with early detection patients can seek early treatment. And, with treatments patients still can have a normal, healthy and productive life.

I have an active forum and blog (www.askdrtan.com) for Sexual Health, STDs, HIV & AIDs prevention and treatment.

The materials in this book should be used as a guide. Many STIs do NOT cause symptoms and if they do, symptoms may be mild.

Please visit your physician or our doctors at Dr. Tan and Partners clinic at Robertson Quay (Approved Anonymous HIV Screening Clinic), Novena Medical Center and The Bencoolen for more guided tests.
