Bacterial STDs can be cured with antibiotics if treatment begins early enough. Viral STDs cannot be cured, but you can manage symptoms with medications. There is a vaccine against hepatitis B, but it will not help if you already have the disease.

Can STD go away?

Do STIs go away on their own? Not usually. It's very unlikely that an STI will go away by itself, and if you delay seeking treatment there's a risk that the infection could cause long-term problems. Even if you don't have any symptoms, there's also a risk of passing the infection on to partners.

What STD Cannot be cured?

Viruses such as HIV, genital herpes, human papillomavirus, hepatitis, and cytomegalovirus cause STDs/STIs that cannot be cured. People with an STI caused by a virus will be infected for life and will always be at risk of infecting their sexual partners.
