STI Testing and Care

STI Testing screening in Denver

If you are sexually active, especially with multiple partners, you may have heard the advice to receive a sexually transmitted infection screening. Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) pass between two people during unprotected sexual activities.

The Women’s Health Group aims to help our patients avoid contracting an STI and provide different treatment options. We treat all of our patients with STIs with compassion and strive to create an environment free of judgment that focuses on keeping our patients healthy.

When Should I Get an STI Screening?

It’s best to receive an STI test as soon as possible. Many health professionals recommend receiving regular screenings for STIs if you are at a higher risk for infection. Things that can put you at a higher risk include:

 
 
 
Under 25 & sexually active
Unprotected sex
Multiple partners
Anonymous partners

What Is the Procedure for STI Checks?

After booking an STI screening at our facility, you and your doctor will discuss your symptoms to learn which test you need. Your doctor may ask how often you use protection, the number of people you’ve been sexually active with, or the kind of sexual contact you’ve had with your partner.

There are many different STI tests available, such as:

  • Urine tests.
  • Cheek swabs.
  • Blood tests.
  • Physical exams.
  • Sampling sores or blisters.
  • Discharge or cell samples.

Post STI Testing

Your doctor may have your results in a few minutes to a few days, depending on the test. If you receive a positive STI test, your doctor will recommend a treatment plan or prescribe medication. You shouldn’t feel ashamed of having an STI. It just means you are a normal person with a normal infection. STIs can happen to anybody. Taking action early and following your doctor’s orders will help prevent spreading the infection to others.
