What is an NHS Foundation Trust?

This page contains information about what NHS Foundation Trusts are.

Contraception

Emergency contraception

Emergency contraception works by preventing an egg from being fertilised by a sperm by delaying the release of the egg in the hope to prevent pregnancy.

Emergency contraception is most effective the sooner it is taken after unprotected sex or failure of your regular contraceptive method, such as missed pills or split condoms.

There are two main methods, the copper coil and the emergency pill of which there are two types, Ulipristal acetate and Levonorgestrel.

If you are under 25, you are entitled to free emergency contraception.

Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs)

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are bacteria, viruses and parasites that can pass from one person to another through unprotected sexual contact or sharing of sex toys.

Most people that have an STI have no symptoms at all, which is why it is so important to regularly get tested after unprotected sex. Testing regularly is always encouraged.

HIV, PrEP, PEP, and vaccines

At Rotherham, we have a team of highly experienced and accomplished HIV specialist clinicians, who are passionate and dedicated to managing the care of people living with HIV.

HIV, like most STIs, has no symptoms in its early stages. This is why it is important to get tested regularly and to practice safe sex.
