Appointment Information
There are lots of reasons to schedule a sexual health or reproductive health appointment. Our providers will assist you with regular STI testing, cancer screening and problem-focused exams. Also, it鈥檚 important to recognize when something isn鈥檛 right. Routine exams can help you learn how your body works and identify problems early to prevent more serious illness.
If you鈥檙e experiencing any symptoms, like unusual genital discharge, itchiness, frequent urination or burning while urinating, it鈥檚 important to come in and speak with a provider as soon as possible. If you鈥檙e interested in birth control or hormone therapy, it鈥檚 also good to schedule an initial consultation and any follow-up visits.
It鈥檚 normal to feel apprehensive about a visit with a healthcare provider. Knowing what to expect and preparing for the visit can help.
During the Visit
Most visits will begin with a conversation with your healthcare provider. They may ask about your sexual and reproductive health history, as well as any issues you may be experiencing. We try to get all the information needed to provide you with the best care possible, and we want you to feel comfortable sharing that with us鈥攚e are nonjudgmental, specially trained in college health, and here for you along the way.
Depending on the reason for the visit, your provider may proceed with testing, an examination, or talking through care options. These processes are simple, and depending on the concern at hand, can include taking samples or swabs; if you have questions, your provider will be happy to talk through the specific processes with you.
Follow-up
Results from these tests come back fairly quickly. Your provider will communicate with you about the results from any tests or exams and may recommend a follow-up visit.
You are welcome to reach out to your provider in this ongoing process, too. The online patient portal,, has a secure messaging feature that allows you to communicate with your provider if you have questions, concerns or want any more information.
Your health is important, and we want you to be empowered to take it on!
