Your CheckPoint Hannover
Check on sexually transmitted deseases for gay and bisexual men*
Fit and healthy? You pay attention to your body and your health?
If you are sexually active, and have sex with alternating partners, you should also have a regular check up for sexually transmitted infections (STI).
We offer an anonymous and confidential risk analysis and a medical examination on relevant sexually transmitted infections for people with sexual behaviour with elevated risks, especially for gay and bisexual men*.
The range of necessary tests depends on the sexual risks and will be decided in the counselling.
The results are available after approx. 5–7 working days.
