Sexual health
Good sexual health involves many things, including knowing about your body and how it works; understanding the physical, social and emotional aspects that come with your sex life.
Taking care of your sexual health, such as through regular sexual health check-ups, means more than being free from sexually transmissible infections (STIs). It also means taking responsibility for your body, your health, your partner’s health and your decisions about sex.
Accessing information and taking advantage of the services available to you, such as HIV and STIs testing services, are key steps in maintaining good sexual health.
These pages provide an overview and links to more detailed information on STIs, transmission, testing and sexual health clinic contacts.
