Sexual Health:

Sexual health concerns, with counseling on sexually transmitted infections (STI’s) prevention and treatment, perform testing, and offer support for sexual dysfunction and sexual health issues.

Common types of STDs include:

  • Chlamydia:Caused by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis, chlamydia is one of the most common STDs. It can lead to complications such as pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and infertility if left untreated.
  • Gonorrhea:Gonorrhea is caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae and can affect the genital tract, rectum, and throat. Untreated gonorrhea can lead to serious complications, including pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and infertility.
  • Syphilis:Syphilis is a bacterial infection caused by Treponema pallidum. It progresses through several stages and can cause serious health problems if left untreated, including neurological damage and organ damage.
  • Herpes:Herpes simplex virus (HSV) causes genital herpes, which manifests as painful sores or blisters in the genital area. While there is no cure for herpes, antiviral medications can help manage symptoms and reduce the frequency of outbreaks.
  • Human Papillomavirus (HPV):HPV is a common virus that can cause genital warts and certain types of cancer, including cervical cancer, anal cancer, and oropharyngeal cancer. Vaccination is available to prevent HPV infection.

Why get tested for STDs?

If you suspect you have been exposed to an STD or experience symptoms such as genital sores, abnormal discharge, or pain during urination, it’s important to seek medical care promptly.

Many STDs show no signs or symptoms, so it’s possible for you or your partner to have one without even knowing it. More importantly, some STDs have no cure, so unless you and your partner get tested, you may accidentally find yourself stuck with one. Many STDs are treatable with antibiotics or antiviral medications, and early intervention can prevent complications and transmission to others.
