Overview
Risk factors for developing lymphogranuloma venereum include [Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)|HIV]]-positive serostatus, unprotected sexual intercourse (anal intercourse higher risk than vaginal intercourse) and multiple sex partners.

- Positive [Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)|HIV]] serostatus
- Unprotected sexual intercourse[1]
- Unprotected anal intercourse is a greater risk factor than unprotected vaginal intercourse
- Multiple sex partners[2]
