STI testing is easy and convenient
For anyone who leads an active sex life, STI testing should be undertaken regularly. Left untreated, sexually transmitted infections can become extremely serious, even life-threatening, so a checkup should be a must. In most cases, a test involves nothing more than supplying a urine sample.
The local GUM clinic should be your first port of call. Most towns have one, and they’re usually easily accessible by public transport. Call in today and you’ll see how friendly, discreet and understanding the staff are. And if you wish, you don’t even need to give them your real name.
