Family Planning Plus

If the person you slept with has a sexually transmitted infection and you were infected, it could be very harmful to the fetus. Many infections have no signs or symptoms so there is no way you can be sure that your recent partner had no diseases. Contact the medical provider who is taking care of your pregnancy and let him/her know that you may have been exposed to sexually transmitted infection. He or she will want to know the date of the intercourse so they can test you for any infections at the appropriate time/s. If you have not chosen a medical provider yet, please do so immediately and make your first appointment as soon as possible.
