Taking charge of your sexual health is important. Getting tested regularly for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) allows you to take proper precautions and get treatment if necessary. However, visiting a clinic or doctor’s office for testing can be inconvenient and embarrassing for some. Fortunately, EverlyWell offers convenient and private at-home testing options.
