Frequently Asked Questions about STIs
It is an infection that can be passed from one person to other by means of sexual contact. An infection occurs when a bacteria, parasite or virus grows and enters your body.
Some STIs can be treated while others cannot be treated. There are proper medications available to manage the symptoms of those STIs that cannot be cured.
Almost 20 million people in the United Kingdom get an STI each year. These infections mainly affect men and women of all backgrounds and economic levels. However, half of the new infections occur among young people who are in the age group of 15 to 24 years
Women often have serious health problems from STIs when compared to men:
If chlamydia and gonorrhea are not treated on time, then this increases the chances of developing severe pelvic pain and ectopic pregnancy that can be life-threatening. Chlamydia and gonorrhea may even lead to infertility.
If pregnant women do not treat syphilis on time, then this can be the reason for death of infants.
Women have higher risk than men at the time of unprotected vaginal sex. protected anal sex puts women at greater risk for getting an STI than unprotected vaginal sex.
STI can lead to various health problems for women. Certain types of untreated STIs may cause:
- Problems for getting pregnant or permanent infertility
- Problems during pregnancy and health problems for unborn baby
- Organ damage
- Infection in other parts of the body
- Certain kinds of cancer such as cervical cancer
- Death
Some kinds of STIs make it easy for you to get HIV if you come in close contact with it.
Many STIs have mild symptoms or no symptoms at all. When women face any of these symptoms, they may be mistaken for something else like yeast infection or urinary tract infection. You need to get tested for proper treatment of the infection.
Ask your doctor or nurse if you need to get tested for STIs. They can tell what tests you may need to perform and how they are done. The testing for STIs is also known as STI screening.
Getting tested and treated for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) must be confidential. Most infections can be treated. You may visit a private Gum clinic in London that specialises in treating sexual health problems and performs necessary tests and treatments for many STIs. Our walk in service allows you to fix an appointment instant, which ensures you do not have to wait for several days to see your doctor.
There is a very thin line difference between the two and that difference is completely technical. An STI (sexually transmitted infection) is an infection and when the infection develops into a disease in its matured stages, it is called an STD or sexually transmitted disease.

I found out that my boyfriend was infected with an STI and so I needed to be checked. I was terrified. I was recommended to go to the STI Clinic London for the tests.

As somebody who needed regular STI checks, and has had treatment for syphilis, I can recommend this clinic. The treatment is state of the art and the clinic is a nice place to visit. It is fresh and clean and the staffs are great.


I was so I had been looking for a clinic that was affordable for regular STI checks in London. I found this clinic and I am very glad I did. I feel that the checks they do are very thorough and they always give me confidence that I am looking after my sexual health.


I was afraid that someone I had been with had Chlamydia so I went for testing. I was so comforted by the staff in the clinic and thankfully my test came back negative. Great clinic, brilliant staff.


Nobody really wants to have to go to an STI Clinic but if you do find that you have to, this clinic is the best one to go to! I have been visiting for a while for help with managing a recurring thrush condition. The staff are always helpful and kind.


I had been having problems for some time, and did not want to go to my GP about it, as I was embarrassed. I found this clinic through an advert I saw and I thought that being in Harley Street, it was going to be a reputable place. I was right. I was looked after and did not feel the least bit embarrassed. Great place and great staff. I would recommend.
