Pale flakes with lingering stealth come feeling for our faces—
We cringe in holes, back on forgotten dreams, and stare, snow-dazed,
Deep into grassier ditches. So we drowse, sun-dozed,
Littered with blossoms trickling where the blackbird fusses.
Is it that we are dying?— Wilfred Owen from "Exposure"

STI
Sexual health clinics, public health clinics, health clinics, doctors, and hospitals provide STD tests. Sexual health and public health clinics often provide STD tests for little or no charge.

- The article is weakened by the discussion of STI in the introductory paragraph.
- The distinction between STD and STI belongs only in the Terminology section.
- Chlamydia, HPV, herpes, and HIV can infect without causing disease.
Sexual health clinics inform men and women about the physical health of their sexual activities, and test for sexually transmitted infections.
Some clinics have separate hours or facilities for men and women. Some clinics serve only specific populations such as women, men, MSM, youths, LGBT, ethnic groups, or students, but sometimes also provide services to others.
Sexual health clinics provide only some reproductive health services. Few clinics perform abortions or offer birth control other than condoms.
Sexual health clinics are also called STD clinics, VD (venereal disease) clinics, or GUM clinics.
Sexual health clinics differ from reproductive health clinics. Sexual health clinics offer only some reproductive health services. Reproductive health clinics, such as Planned Parenthood, offer most of the services of sexual health clinics.
- Interpreting for the hearing impaired or speakers of other languages
Public governmental and non-profit clinics often provide services for free or adjust the fee based on a patient's ability to pay.
Sexual health clinics often offer services without appointments. Some clinics open evenings or on weekends.
Some clinics offer emergency contraception and psychological counseling.
Not all sexual health clinics provide pap tests for women.
With the patient's consent, the clinician will inspect the patient visually and by touch. If needed, the clinician will take samples to test for sexually transmitted infections.
The clinician may inspect the patient's:
- Throat and lymph nodes of the neck for inflammation
- Pubic hair for lice
- Lymph nodes of the groin for swelling
- Genitals, anus, and surrounding areas for sores or warts
The clinician may swab the patient's:
- Throat to test for gonorrhea and possibly chlamydia
- Cheek, inside, to test for HIV
- Sores of the genitals, anus, and surrounding areas to test for herpes
- Urethra to test for gonorrhea and possibly chlamydia
- Vagina to test for chlamydia and possibly gonorrhea
- Cervix to test for human papillomavirus (HPV)
- Rectum to test for gonorrhea and possibly chlamydia
The clinician may take small blood samples by finger prick or from a vein to test for HIV, syphilis, and possibly herpes.
The clinician may ask for a small urine sample, given in private, to test for chlamydia and possibly gonorrhea.
The inspections and taking samples doesn't hurt, but swabbing the urethra and cervix, and a finger prick blood sample feel uncomfortable.
In the United States, clinics receiving federal funding from Medicaid or Title X of the Public Health Service Act must treat all patients confidentially. Thus minors can receive services without parental notification or consent.
At many sexual health clinics, a minor may consent to some or all of the procedures.
Medical standards of consent apply to sexual health clinics. A patient needs information about the purposes and consequences of examinations, tests, treatments, and other procedures. A patient may then choose to consent to these procedures.
