Sexual Health Dorset is the free contraception and sexual health service for all ages, provided by Dorset HealthCare University NHS Foundation Trust.

We offer a wide range of confidential services, including STI testing and treatment, contraception (including emergency contraception), PEP, and specialist young people’s services including ChatSexual Health Dorset.

We also offer postal STI testing, treatment and contraception through our digital partner, SH:24.


New Initiatives

As you may have heard in the news recently, there are a couple of new initiatives to support the prevention of some STIs. There is a Meningococcal B vaccine to help prevent gonorrhoea and medication called Doxy PEP to help prevent chlamydia and syphilis.

SHD will be promoting both these initiatives and will be offering them to patients who fit the criteria to receive them. Please keep a check on our website and social media channels @sexualhealthindorset for further information as we develop our clinical pathways.

For men who have sex with men, with multiple partners, participate in group sex or attend sex-on-premises venues, there is still a small risk of catching Mpox.

Bristol:

If you are eligible for the vaccine, anyone who missed their Mpox vaccine can now attend Bristol Royal Infirmary to receive them. This is for anyone who missed any doses before previous supplies ran out.

Bristol Royal Infirmary – Click here for contact details.

Southampton:

Southampton are also offering vaccines and patients can book themselves if they haven’t had vaccines and are eligible. Southampton are not doing second doses – only first, for those who have missed them altogether. This is for Saturday clinics only.

To find out more call 0300 300 2016. Press option for chasing results to speak to a Health Adviser to book an appointment.
