PositiveSingles Builds a Supportive Community for People Living with STIs

Online Support Is Becoming an Essential Part of STI Care

VAUGHAN, ON, October 31, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- According to the latest data from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the national average STI rate is 16 cases per 100,000 people, with several states reporting rates far above this level. However, what deserves more attention than the numbers is the profound social and psychological stress experienced by each individual diagnosed, including isolation, fear of disclosure, and ongoing concerns about privacy.

In this context, online platforms are gradually becoming tools for some infected individuals to find support and connection. PositiveSingles, the largest and most established online platform for people living with STDs, addresses this challenge by providing emotional support, social connections, reliable health information, and privacy protections, empowering members to overcome isolation and regain confidence.

Since 2001, the platform has been dedicated to building a supportive and inclusive community, which now serves more than 2.6 million members worldwide.

"We have seen how the power of community can help people rebuild their lives," said Michael C., Product Manager at PositiveSingles. "When users tell us they've found not only friendship and love, but also the courage to live fully again, it aligns with PositiveSingles' goal of building a supportive global community where members can connect and feel supported."

To address diverse user needs, the platform offers two modes:
• Community Mode: introduced as a new feature in August 2025, offers a supportive space where members can engage through real-time conversations, blogs, polls, and educational resources, fostering meaningful connections and a sense of belonging.
• Dating Mode: offers a dating-focused environment where members can create profiles, use the Flame feature to find potential matches, and communicate via private messaging and photo sharing.

Through daily interaction, members share their experiences, health knowledge, and stories of overcoming challenges.

Beyond fostering connection, PositiveSingles emphasizes privacy and holistic well-being. Its features include:
• 24/7 live support
• Anonymous STD Q&A
• Private album
• Over 10 customizable privacy settings

These tools empower members to manage both their health and confidentiality.

As STD awareness grows, platforms like PositiveSingles highlight how online communities can play a meaningful role in supporting emotional well-being and fostering understanding in the long-term management of STDs.
