During a sexual health check-up you will be asked questions about your sexual history. These are standard questions that your doctor will ask every patient. While many questions are of a personal nature, you need to answer as honestly as you can as the information you provide will enable your HHMP doctor to better support your health needs. You can skip any questions you prefer not to answer.
Your doctor must respect your confidentiality. There are a limited number of situations where they can be required to report information, for example if they have serious concerns about you or someone else's safety.
Questions may focus on:
- whether you have any physical symptoms
- any previous STIs you may have had
- sexual behaviour (e.g. what kind of sex you have had)
- relationship history (e.g. how may partners you've had)
- menstrual cycle and contraception (e.g. how regular your periods are)
- drug and alcohol use and
- general questions, if not already known, about your health and medication history.
