STD/STI Screening & Treatment in Royal Palm Beach
At Gentle Birth Center OBGYN, we provide confidential STD/STI screening and effective treatment in a supportive, judgment-free environment. Regular testing is an important part of preventive women’s healthcare and helps protect your reproductive health, overall wellness, and future fertility.
Why STD/STI Screening Is Important
Many sexually transmitted diseases and infections have no symptoms, especially in women. Without testing, infections can go undetected and lead to long-term complications.
Routine screening helps:
- Detect infections early—even without symptoms
- Prevent complications such as pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)
- Protect fertility and reproductive health
- Reduce the spread of infections to partners
- Provide peace of mind
What We Screen For
Based on your age, risk factors, and sexual history, STD/STI screening may include testing for:
- Chlamydia
- Gonorrhea
- Human Papillomavirus (HPV)
- HIV
- Syphilis
- Herpes (HSV), when indicated
- Hepatitis B and C
- Our providers tailor testing to your individual needs—no unnecessary tests, no assumptions.
STD/STI Treatment & Follow-Up
If an infection is detected, we provide prompt, evidence-based treatment and clear guidance on next steps, which may include:
- Prescription medications or antibiotics
- Education on partner notification and treatment
- Follow-up testing to ensure resolution
- Counseling on prevention and safer sex practices
We coordinate care discreetly and compassionately, always prioritizing your comfort and privacy.
When Should You Get Tested?
STD/STI screening is recommended if you:
- Are sexually active
- Have a new or multiple partners
- Experience symptoms such as unusual discharge, itching, burning, or pelvic pain

Testing can be done during your annual well-woman exam or as a standalone visit.
