Wellness Visits

Routine wellness visits help detect risks early and keep prevention plans current.

A reproductive wellness visit can include STI screening, contraception review, vaccine counseling, and symptom discussion. Regular preventive care supports earlier intervention.

Prevention Strategies

  • Book annual preventive visits and return sooner when symptoms appear.
  • Bring a symptom timeline and medication list to appointments.
  • Ask about vaccines, screening schedules, and sexual health testing.
  • Use follow-up reminders so labs and referrals are completed on time.

When to Seek Care

  • Any new reproductive, urinary, or sexual health symptom.
  • Known exposure to an STI or concern after unprotected sex.
  • Pain, bleeding, fever, or rapid symptom worsening requires urgent care.
