Skip to content At Women’s Health Group Chicago, we are committed to providing comprehensive STD screening services to our patients from Harwood Heights and beyond. Our team understands the importance of early detection and diagnosis in managing sexually transmitted diseases effectively. We offer a wide range of screenings for various STDs including but not limited to HIV, Herpes, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea and HPV. These tests are provided with utmost care and confidentiality to ensure your comfort during the process.
In addition to full screenings, another service that sets us apart is offering rapid testing for common STDs. This includes quick diagnostic methods which can provide results within hours rather than days or weeks. The quick turnaround time ensures swift intervention which is crucial in preventing further spread of infections while preserving your health.
Upon receiving a positive test result, you shouldn’t have to worry about what comes next; at Women’s Health Group Chicago clinic we take it upon ourselves not just to diagnose but also devise personalized treatment plans that fit well with each patient’s unique condition and lifestyle. Our top priority is assisting women through their journey towards recovery by treating existing outbreaks as well as taking necessary preventive measures against any future incidences.
Our care model extends beyond individual patients’ needs by caring even for those around them who may equally be concerned or at risk of contracting an infection. As part of this initiative centered on community health protection, we offer partner notification and testing services aimed at ensuring anyone exposed gets tested too thus curbing further transmission.
Here at Women’s Health Group Chicago, we understand prevention is often better than cure; therefore vaccinations play a key role in our healthcare offerings specifically aimed at combating Sexually Transmitted Diseases. We administer preventive immunizations, such as the HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccine among many others available on offer.
Knowledge remains an integral part of STD preventive measures. We place great emphasis on providing our patients with education about various infections, their risks and how to protect themselves from contracting or spreading them. Our health professionals are equipped to provide non-judgmental counseling addressing your fears, concerns whilst encouraging healthy sexual behaviors for a better quality life.

An STD, or sexually transmitted disease, is an infection that is passed from one person to another through sexual contact. STDs can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites.
The most common STDs include:
STDs can be transmitted through vaginal sex, anal sex, and oral sex. They can also be transmitted through sharing needles or other drug paraphernalia.
The symptoms of STDs can vary depending on the type of infection. Some STDs, such as chlamydia and gonorrhea, may not cause any symptoms at all. Other STDs, such as herpes and syphilis, can cause painful sores or blisters.
The best way to prevent STDs is to abstain from sexual contact. However, if you do choose to have sex, there are a number of things you can do to reduce your risk of getting an STD, such as:
Most STDs can be treated with antibiotics. However, some STDs, such as HIV and herpes, are incurable.
If left untreated, STDs can lead to serious complications, such as infertility, pelvic inflammatory disease, and cancer.
