If you’ve had unprotected sex or a change of partners, it’s time to get tested. Oral, anal, or vaginal sex always carries the risks of STDs. If you need more information on the types of STDs or avoiding sexually transmitted diseases or infections, contact us today.
Note: STDs and STIs are interchangeable terms used in the medical community.
When Should I Get Tested?
At a minimum, the CDC recommends all sexually active women schedule an annual chlamydia and gonorrhea screening. You also need to get tested if:
You may need to get tested even if you have no symptoms or consistently use a condom or barrier method. Getting tested prior to an abortion procedure can reduce your risk of infection or PID (pelvic inflammatory disease).

All appointments and results are confidential.
