STIs are spread through oral, vaginal, or anal sex. Often STIs do not present with any symptoms at all and which is why it is important to get regular testing. STIs can have consequences ranging from mild to serious issues, such as infertility, tubal pregnancy, cancer, and sterility.

Our STI clinic offers confidential, low-cost HIV and STI testing, counseling, and treatment for ages 13 and older.  Note: Parental permission is not required for STI testing for teens.

Please do not urinate for one hour before getting tested for Chlamydia and Gonorrhea.
