Results from surveys undertaken with young people living in Hertfordshire, show that most of you think it’s OK to wait to have sex. However, if you are in a relationship (even if you’re not having sex), it’s still important to know about healthy relationships, contraception, sexually transmitted Infections (STI’s) and local services.
We offer a range of free and confidential services including pregnancy testing, emergency contraception and testing for STI’s.
You can give us a call on 0300 008 5522 so we can put you in touch with someone who can have a chat about your sexual health and suggest the best support for you. If you are 21 or under, tell us your age so we can tell you about the walk-in service too.
There are also other websites that provide useful information;
- Services for Young People (local services for young people including free condoms, Chlamydia & Gonorrhoea testing)
- Health for Teens (select Hertfordshire)
- Sexwise (honest advice about contraception, pregnancy, STIs and pleasure)
