Sexual Health

Just as with other aspects of your health, your sexual health is very important.

University years may be a time of transition and change, and for some this means becoming sexually active with a partner for the first time, or a change in sexual partner(s). It may also be a time of self-discovery and uncertainty about your sexual orientation.

If you are concerned about any aspect of your sexual health, the Student Health Department can help.

We have a dedicated team with considerable experience built up over the years of helping people deal with sexual issues.
