Useful Contraception and family planning Websites

If you would like a check up or think that you may have a sexually transmitted infection and you do not want to discuss it with your doctor, then you can obtain free confidential advice, diagnosis and treatment from one of the Hertfordshire based GUM (Genito-Urinary Medicine) Clinics.

All GUM Clinics provide comprehensive services for HIV patients, non-directive abortion councelling and support for gay and bisexual men and women. Some also offer contraception services, often including emergency contraception.
