If you have had unprotected sex there is also a risk you could have a Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) and so please contact our clinics as soon as possible. If you are unable to call us during working hours and if you can’t wait, please dial 111 for immediate help and advice with any sexual health concern.
REMEMBER: Condoms are the only contraception method to reduce the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Condoms can protect you from STI’s such as syphilis and gonorrhoea, both of which have increased in the last couple of years.
