How often do you have a sexual health check up and STI test?
Your doctor at Holdsworth House can send you regular reminders
to help you keep up to date with an STI test routine best suited to you.
Reminders can be sent at regular intervals (3, 6 or 12 monthly)
according to the number of partners you tell your doctor you are having.

Women's Sexual Health
The World Health Organization (WHO) defines sexual health as "the state of physical, emotional, mental and social well-being related to sexuality; it is not merely the absence of disease, dysfunction and infirmity.
Sexual health requires a positive, respectful approach to sexuality and sexual relationships, as well as the possibility of having pleasurable and safe sexual experiences, free of coercion, discrimination and violence. For sexual health to be attained and maintained, the sexual rights of all persons must be respected, protected and fulfilled."
Your HHMP Doctor focuses on understanding sexual health issues of special interest to women.
Your HHMP Doctor can also examine issues relating to communication within sexual relationships, and much more.

Your HHMP Doctor can address a wide range of these factors focusing on men's sexual health, from physical issues (prostate health, chronic illnesses), to reproductive and sexual functioning issues (infertility, erectile dysfunction), to the effects of outside influences on male sexual health (medications, aging) as well as pleasure.
