Bendigo STI test video a bit of fun with a serious message – when was your last check?

video_plug

We've had some fun making this little video for STI Testing Week.

The video is fun to get your attention but the message is very real - getting tested regularly for sexually transmissible infections is vital, particularly if you're having casual sex or thinking about starting a family.

The test is easy and totally confidential.

Most STIs are easily treated but can have major health impacts such as infertility if left alone.

Huge thanks to our staff and the people/organisations who gave their time to help us make this video, including Fire Rescue Victoria, Bendigo & District Aboriginal Co-Operative, Thorne Harbour Country, Women’s Health Loddon Mallee and Headspace Bendigo.

Get an STI test through our BCHS Sexual Health Clinic or Women’s Sexual and Reproductive Health Hub by calling 5406 1200, your GP or family planning clinic.

So, when was your last test?
