23-year old Mandesia had never been to Planned Parenthood. She knew that part of being an adult meant getting tested for STDs and caring for her sexual health, so she let go of the guilt and fear she was feeling and made an appointment at her local Planned Parenthood health center. This is her story of care.

Planned Parenthood’s committed, professional staff provides high-quality, affordable sexual and reproductive health care for millions of women, men, and teens. Caring and knowledgeable staff provide a wide range of services — including STI/STD testing & treatment, contraception, cancer screenings & prevention, and abortion services, etc.

Transcript:

Patient: Personal health just means taking care of yourself. Some of the aspects that I’d like to learn about Planned Parenthood revolve around the interaction of what it would be to book an appointment with Planned Parenthood — because I’ve never done so.

A lot of their motives seem to be centered around people's general health and well-being — and just being responsible for your personal health and not having any shame or any guilt or any fear revolving around getting a test or booking an appointment, because it’s being responsible and it’s a necessity.

Doctor: Have you ever been tested before?

Patient: No.

Doctor. Okay.

Patient: So I’m opening up my first results… It’s looking pretty good …. and it’s super convenient. It’s online.

Altogether it was a really easy process. I think sexual health and sexual history … is still something uncomfortable for people to talk about — and so I do think those are important conversations to have.

I’m feeling like a responsible adult right now.

Text: Online test results are not available at all Planned Parenthood health centers.

luckily you can get tested by getting your cheek swabbed or peeing in a cup instead, because I don't like needles..
