If Trichomoniais is not treated, will it continue to flare up over years?
Is it possible to get Depo Provera through the university health services, and, if so, how much would it cost? How much would it cost if the university does not provide Depo
Provera?
Does Rutgers provide any free (or not free) STD
testing for guys? Looking through the website I've seen only information about HIV testing and GYN examination which as I understand is for females.
How much does
KY Jelly cost?
Would it be
possible for me to get my girlfriend birth control pills through the
Rutgers health center even though she is not a student here?
Does Rutgers
provide birth control pills? If so, how does one go about getting them,
and how much does it cost?
What are the costs involved for getting tested for STD's
and HIV? Who do I contact about setting up the appointments and what are
the phone numbers? What tests does the Rutgers Health Center offer to
students (male and female)? What is the potential that these tests will
come back negative even though I am carrying something? Should I retest in
six months if I am in a monogamous relationship to confirm the results of
the tests?
Does the
University conduct any examinations for testicular cancer? I have recently
been getting an achy pain in my groin area on and off. I have not had a
physical recently and don't know of any doctors to go to... Please inform me
of the university's clinic or exams if any.
During the pap
exam they check you for cervical cancer... can you ask the doctor to also
check for any disease? I know that we you become sexually active you are
supposed to be checked. Another question is if the health center on Livingston
specialize in giving pap exams and so forth. What do you think?
