Comprehensive Sexual Health Services at Bute Pharmacy

At Bute Pharmacy, located in the heart of Rothesay on the beautiful Isle of Bute, we understand that sexual health is an essential part of overall well-being. Our Comprehensive Sexual Health Services are designed to provide you with accessible, confidential, and non-judgmental support, no matter your age or background.

What Services Do We Offer?

1. Sexual Health Screening:
   Regular check-ups are crucial to maintaining good sexual health. We offer screenings for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and HIV. Testing is quick, easy, and can often be done onsite, ensuring you get the results you need to take care of your health.

2. Contraceptive Services:
   We provide advice and services related to various contraceptive methods, including oral contraceptive pills, condoms, and emergency contraception. Our trained pharmacists can help you understand your options, choose the method that suits you best, and instruct you on proper use.

3. Medication for Sexual Health:
   If you have any sexual health concerns, we can prescribe medications for treatment. This includes antiviral medications for herpes and treatment for other infections. Confidentiality is paramount, and we strive to make you feel comfortable throughout the process.

4. Sexual Health Education:
   Knowledge is a vital part of sexual health. We offer resources and educational materials that cover important topics such as safe sex practices, consent, and understanding your body. Whether you are a first-timer or seeking to update your knowledge, we’re here to help.

5. Referral Services:
   If you require specialized care beyond our pharmacy services, we can facilitate referrals to NHS services, including clinics in nearby towns or comprehensive health centres.

Why is Sexual Health Important?

Taking care of your sexual health is just as important as managing other aspects of your health. Regular check-ups can help prevent serious health complications, reduce the spread of infections, and ensure that you are informed about your sexual health options. According to the NHS, awareness and proactive management of STIs can significantly improve public health outcomes.
