My ex partner who cheated on me has told me to go and get checked for sti`s in case i have any, i was just wondering if they are free... im 19 and on benefits. In the UK.
They are free. You have 2 real options. Go to your GP and ask them to test you (the results will be kept on your medical notes). Alternatively look on the internet for the phone number of your local GUM clinic at the local hospital. If you get this done at the GUM clinic the results will not go on your medical records. Its entirely your choice. Good on you for wanting to get checked.
