If you are sexually active or have simply had a one night stand and didn’t use protection it is a good idea to take responsibility for your sexual health and go for regular testing and check ups. Not only will the clinics listed below test you for STIs they also offer free and confidential advice, free contraception, emergency contraception, advice and help for unplanned pregnancy as well as advice on a whole host of other health related issues.

Going for a test can seem like a pretty daunting experience but trust us, there is nothing to be frightened about and a quick test is far better than a nasty STI.
