Skip to content At Womens Health Group Chicago, we prioritize your sexual health and peace of mind. Our team offers Comprehensive STD Screening as a critical aspect of our service menu. By conducting exhaustive tests for various sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), we can help catch any issues early – when they are most treatable. This isn’t just routine; it’s essential care that enables you to take control over your health.
We understand how important quick results are when dealing with potential STD concerns. That’s why the Womens Health Group Chicago provides Rapid Testing For Common STDs as part of our well-rounded array of services. We use state-of-the-art technology to deliver reliable test results quickly so you can have clarity regarding your sexual health in less time than typical testing methods allow.
Early detection often leads to effective treatment, which is where the next step comes into play at Women’s Health Group Chicago: Treatment and Management of STDs. Our highly skilled medical professionals will guide you through the entire process once an accurate diagnosis is made – from determining the best form of treatment to managing ongoing healthcare needs related to detected conditions.
The wellbeing journey doesn’t finish with individual testing; we must ensure safety within relationships as well, for which Partner Notification and Testing plays an integral role. If identified positive for an infectious disease after screening, informing all partners becomes necessary so preventative measures or treatments could be pursued if required – this enables everyone involved to maintain their overall health while minimizing further spread.
Another vital component marking its significance here at Womens Health Group Chicago includes Vaccinations – a proactive measure against common forms of infection like HPV, hepatitis A & B among others associated potentially with intimate contact. Vaccinations play a pivotal role not only in safeguarding individual health, but also helps reduce the spread of infections within West Town’s community.
Finally, while addressing immediate health concerns is necessary, preventive measures form core principles guiding us. Hence we emphasize Preventive Education and Counselling to equip women with knowledge about safer practices, pre/post-testing procedures and prepare them mentally for various outcomes if tested positive – all while assuring complete confidentiality. Trust Womens Health Group Chicago to prioritize both your mental and physical wellbeing.

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.
