HIV doesn’t happen in isolation. Screening for hepatitis and STIs is still an important part of staying healthy. Coinfections can make HIV harder to manage and may lead to additional health complications if they aren’t identified early.

Regular testing helps catch issues sooner, supports better treatment decisions, and protects long-term health. If you have HIV, talk with your health care provider about routine screening for hepatitis and STIs.
