How is GBS transmitted?
Is GBS a sexually transmitted Disease?
GBS is a naturally occurring bacterium in the human body of both women
and men. Since it is commonly found in the vagina, some people wonder
whether GBS is a sexually transmitted disease. The answer is "No". GBS
bacteria usually do not cause genital symptoms or discomfort and are
not linked with increased sexual activity. Women found to carry GBS do
not need to change their sexual practices.
