Language matters, especially when discussing sexual health. Avoid stigmatizing terms like 'dirty', 'promiscuous', or 'risky behavior'. Instead, use neutral, factual language to promote sexual wellness and reduce shame. #SexualHealth #HealthyLanguage

Did last night go with a bang?🎇 But this morning worried about Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea? These STI's don't show in a test straight away so you will need to wait 2 weeks. You can order a test online from our website, but please remember not to test too early. #windowperiod #STI

Navigating the #NHS can be hard for people who were born abroad. If you work with #migrants and #AsylumSeekers, we've published video guides in French, Portuguese, Spanish, Kiswahili and English to explain HIV entitlements to make the process easier. ow.ly/HF5U50Qurts

Thinking about long-term contraception but don't like hormones? An IUD might be a great option! It’s a small non hormonal copper device placed in the uterus that can prevent pregnancy for 5-10 years. Fitting can be uncomfortable, but we can offer local anaesthetic to help. #IUD
