What to expect at your appointment

If you have any health concerns or symptoms, for example an abnormal discharge, then it is important that you let us know so we can plan the most appropriate tests for you.

You should tell us if you’re not happy having an intimate genital examination. We can talk about other ways of carrying out your tests. For example, you may be able to take a vaginal, anal or throat swab yourself or give a urine sample. You will be offered tests appropriate to your needs. We recommend as a minimum annual STI testing for chlamydia, gonorrhoea, HIV and syphilis if you are sexually active. More frequent testing may be needed if you have a new partner[s] and other tests will be added according to your symptoms needs.

In addition to STI testing, we offer contraception including long acting and emergency contraception and vaccinations for Hepatitis A, B, HPV and MPOX and HIV PREP and PEPSE as STI prevention, if you are at high risk for these infections following our assessment.

Your visit to our Young Persons’ service is confidential and we will not share information without your permission. However, if we believe you or others are in serious danger, we may need to speak to others to protect you. We will usually speak to you first if we are going to share information about you.
