My sexual health

Welcome to 'my sexual health' where you will find information and support for a range of sexual health issues which may affect you!

Sex and sexuality can provoke strong emotions and looking after your sexual health isn't just about stopping a pregnancy or STI infection, it's also about feeling good and getting the most out of the relationships you choose to have.

Sometimes help is needed to cope with the aftermath of sex or a relationship which has been abusive or against a persons will, and as most abusers and perpetrators are known and trusted by the person abused this can be extremely confusing and distressing.

Whatever your issue, its worth finding out the facts and information for yourself and making up your own mind about what's best for you. Never let someone else decide what's right for you.

All the services and support named on this page are free and confidential and if you can't find what you're looking for you might like to contact your local clinic who will be happy to help and guide you.
