Have I got an STI?
If there’s something weird going on downstairs, don’t ignore it. It could get worse. The worst thing you could do is to pretend nothing’s happening. It might turn out to be nothing, but you won’t be able to stop thinking about it until you know for sure. So, give yourself a break and put your mind at ease and get yourself an appointment at a Genito-urinary medicine (GUM) clinic. If you’ve had unprotected sex, you should get yourself checked out even if you don’t have any symptoms because some infections have no warning signs. Find your nearest sexual health clinic.
Yes, you’ll probably feel embarrassed about going, but what you’ve got to remember is that these clinics deal with sexual health so they’ve seen it all before. If you’re worried about going to get checked out, why not find out what to expect when you visit a sexual health clinic.
