Global travel has increased to unprecedented levels, and that feeling of holiday freedom also adds to less safe sexual practice and a higher STI risk, according to Australian experts, who say sexual health advice should be provided to travellers to stop the spread of STIs.

The experts say sexual health advice should be part of travel medicine.
