If you are currently sexually active or considering becoming sexually active, it’s important to know how to keep you and your partner(s) safe. Having oral, anal and/or vaginal sex can put you at risk of sexually transmitted infections/diseases (STI) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). However, you can take action to reduce this risk and engage in safe sexual practices.
If you are diagnosed with an STI, you can receive treatment at a Maryland Family Planning Program clinic and services are free or affordable. You can also use your insurance, including Medicaid, at all of the clinic locations. Insurance is not required and no one is ever turned away based on ability to pay. You can use the search tool below to find a clinic near you. You can also learn more about preventing STI and find additional information and resources.
