If you\u2019re sexually active, the only way to know if you have an STD is to get tested.<\/p>\n<p>Common symptoms of STDs include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Painful urination<\/li>\n<li>Abdominal or pelvic pain<\/li>\n<li>Pain during intercourse<\/li>\n<li>Vaginal discharge or strong vaginal odor<\/li>\n<li>Bleeding in between your periods<\/li>\n<li>Fever, rash, or swollen lymph nodes or glands<\/li>\n<li>Bumps or itchy genitalia<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 29px;\">What type of tests do I need?<\/h3>\n<p>The type of tests you need to check for STDs varies. The team at MyDoc Women\u2019s Health Specialists offer full panel testing and determine specific tests for you after they\u2019ve gotten your sexual history and conducted a physical exam.<\/p>\n<p>Types of testing may include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Blood and urine sample<\/li>\n<li>Pap or HPV test<\/li>\n<li>Tissue swab<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 29px;\">Can STDs affect my health?<\/h3>\n<p>If left untreated, STDs can lead to health problems, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Infertility<\/li>\n<li>Transmission of the infection to your baby<\/li>\n<li>Organ damage or spreading of infection to other parts of your body<\/li>\n<li>Certain types of cancer, such as cervical cancer with specific strains of HPV<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 29px;\">How are STDs treated?<\/h3>\n<p>Treatment for STDs depends on the type of STD you\u2019ve contracted. For bacterial infection, such as gonorrhea or chlamydia, an antibiotic can clear the infection and prevent health problems.<\/p>\n<p>With viral infections, such as HPV or HIV, there is no cure and medications are prescribed to help manage symptoms.<\/p>\n<p>The team at MyDoc Women\u2019s Health Specialists may recommend preventive measures to reduce your risk of getting an STD. These measures might include receiving vaccinations for hepatitis and HPV. The team also supports the use of condoms or monogamous sexual relationships to protect yourself from illness.<\/p>\n<p>For confidential STD testing with a caring team of female practitioners, call the office, or book an appointment with the online booking agent.<\/p>\n<\/div><div style=\"text-align:center;\"><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat fusion-button-default-size button-default fusion-button-default button-2 fusion-button-default-span fusion-button-default-type request-app-btn\" style=\"--awb-margin-top:30px;\" target=\"_self\" href=\"\/mydocwomens\/contact\/\"><span class=\"fusion-button-text awb-button__text awb-button__text--default\">REQUEST APPOINTMENT<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-3 fusion-flex-container fusion-parallax-none nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-padding-top:10%;--awb-padding-bottom:10%;--awb-background-image:linear-gradient(180deg, rgba(0,0,0,0.4) 0%,rgba(0,0,0,0.4) 100%),url(https:\/\/www.toplinemd.com\/mydocwomens\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/249\/2021\/10\/testamonials-background-image.jpg);;--awb-background-size:cover;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-justify-content-center fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"max-width:1216.8px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-3 fusion_builder_column_4_5 4_5 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:80%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:2.4%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:0px;--awb-spacing-left-large:2.4%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-testimonials clean awb-speech-bubble-show fusion-testimonials-1\" style=\"--awb-textcolor:#ffffff;--awb-backgroundcolor:rgba(255,255,255,0);--awb-testimonial-border-style:solid;--awb-testimonial-border-color:var(--awb-color3);--awb-border-top-left-radius:0px;--awb-border-top-right-radius:0px;--awb-border-bottom-left-radius:0px;--awb-border-bottom-right-radius:0px;--testimonial-border-width-top:0px;--testimonial-border-width-right:0px;--testimonial-border-width-bottom:0px;--testimonial-border-width-left:0px;\" data-random=\"0\" data-speed=\"6000\"><div class=\"reviews\"><div class=\"review active-testimonial avatar-above no-avatar\"><blockquote class=\"testimonials-shortcode-blockquote\"><div class=\"awb-quote\"><div class=\"awb-quote-content\">\u201cThe staff is very friendly and professional.
