Sexually Transmitted Infection Testing & Treatment



Millions of Americans have sexually transmitted infections, though most people don't know it.

There is a powerful social stigma against STIs that prevents people from admitting they have one. Most STIs are curable, and all of them are treatable.

Abstinence is the only way to be completely infection-free.

If that's not an option, make sure that you and your partner get tested, practice safer sex, and educate yourselves!

Start making responsible choices today by getting tested for these common STI's:

-Chlamydia
-Gonorrhea
-Hepatitis B
-Herpes
-HIV and AIDS
-Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)

Planned Parenthood wants you to have a happy and healthy sex life. The key is to know the facts, understand your risks, and take precautions. If you have questions you can send an email to our online clinician. While you're at it, you can make an appointment to get tested-- just to make sure.

Visit one of PPECI's seven health centers and get information, testing and treatment for sexually transmitted infections.
