Sexual Health and Contraception
Sexual health is an important part of your health and wellbeing. At the Student Wellness Centre, a nurse is available to dispense low cost birth control when you have a prescription from a doctor at the Student Wellness Centre.
Same day services include:
- A nurse is available to talk with you about emergency contraception (Plan B)
- Pregnancy testing
- STI testing: when experiencing symptoms or if a partner has tested positive
Book an appointment with a doctor at the Student Wellness Centre:
- To discuss birth control options, or to renew your birth control prescription.
- For routine STI testing (if you are experiencing STI symptoms or if a partner has tested positive, you can access our walk-in service to see a doctor that day)
- To discuss cervical cancer screening (Pap test) if you are over the age of 21 and are or ever have been sexually active
- To discuss immunizations available to help protect against illness spread through sexual contact (for example, the HPV vaccine)
