Planning a pregnancy? Protect your sexual health
Sexually Transmitted and Blood Borne Infections (STBBIs) like Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Syphilis, HIV, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C can affect your pregnancy and baby’s health. Early testing and treatment reduce risks.
Take Action
- Get Tested Early: Test for STBBIs before pregnancy to treat infections in advance
- Include Your Partner: Encourage your partner to get tested too, as many infections have no symptoms
- Follow Up: If you test positive, complete treatment and retesting as recommended by your healthcare provider
