Question: What health advice do you have for someone that has been recently raped 2weeks
Answer: Hi there and thanks for using Wellvis 

Sorry about this ordeal

Depending on your location the formalities may differ but the approach is usually the same The main things Ill recommend will be

  The victim should report to the police station so that the chase for the perpetrator is initiated 

 Visit thé hospital for examination of the genital and anal areas to document any signs of forced entry Here also a screen for sexually transmitted infections needs to be done 

 For female victims abortion services may be offered depending on local laws Since its been 2 weeks the emergency contraceptive pill will be of no benefit

 Counseling and therapy sessions need to be started for the victim to mitigate the mental health effects of the rape You can look up institutions or organisations focused on rape in your area and contact them

 At thé family and community level moral support should be provided to the victim Keeping the victims name undisclosed is important in avoiding stigmatization

Rape is the worst of its kind and I empathize with the victim I hope they can  find peace with themselves and receive justice

The needs of a rape survivor range from legal to medical to psychological support Although you have specifically requested for health advice I believe a holistic approach might be helpful 

The next steps might be overwhelming however centres like the Mirabel Centre can be contacted via phone on 0815 577 0000 or 0818 724 3468
