Why early treatment matters

The sooner you start, the simpler it usually is. Treating an STD early clears it faster, prevents it being passed on to partners, and avoids complications later. It’s a small step now that saves a lot later — and most treatments are quick and straightforward.

A gentle reminder

Complete the full course, and finish treatment before resuming sex. Partners should be treated too — it's the best way to avoid reinfection.

HIV & prevention medicine

Beyond treating infections, we help you stay protected. PrEP is daily protection taken before exposure, and PEP is emergency medicine taken within 72 hours after exposure. Not sure of your status? Start with a confidential HIV test.
