Many STDs initially cause no symptoms, so you should get tested regularly if you are sexually active or have a new partner. When diagnosed and treated early, almost all STDs can be treated effectively. Some STDs are associated with cervical cancer, others can be passed from mother to baby before and during birth. Below is an outline of STD tests and treatments offered at the Student Health Centre. All swabs and urine samples are collected at the Student Health Centre, but it is necessary to have blood drawn at one of the Saskatoon District Health laboratories.
All results are confidential.
We encourage students to telephone or drop in and see the nurse for their results. It is necessary to make an appointment with a doctor for all HIV results.
