Take Care of Your Sexual Health With Telemedicine

Sep 3, 2024

• CaptainMD Staff

You can get access to high-quality, evidence-based care for STIs, UTIs, sexual and erectile dysfunction, birth control, and menopause while enjoying the comfort and convenience of telemedicine. Our practice offers convenient, same-day appointments for patients needing medical care for their sexual health, conducted over video and phone calls. Virtual visits allow us to quickly assess your condition and provide appropriate treatment.

We provide care for the following, without the need for an in-person office visit:

STI (Sexually Transmitted Infection) Screening and Treatment

Through video visits, we can assess symptoms, order necessary lab tests, and prescribe treatments for many common sexually transmitted infections. We'll guide you through at-home testing kits when needed.

Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)

We will assess your symptoms, including pain or burning sensation while urinating, frequency and urgency of urination, lower abdominal discomfort, cloudy or strong-smelling urine, and presence of blood in the urine. We will also review your medical history and any risk factors for UTIs. We can diagnose most UTIs without the need for additional testing. For most patients, we can prescribe appropriate antibiotic treatment immediately following the consultation in order to resolve symptoms quickly.

UTIs are less common for males, than females. Males experiencing UTI symptoms may need to go to an urgent care clinic or emergency care in person immediately, rather than have a virtual call over telemedicine.

Sexual and Erectile Dysfunction Management

Our providers are trained to address concerns like low libido, painful intercourse, and orgasm difficulties. We take a holistic approach, considering both physical and psychological factors.

Birth Control Consultations

We offer virtual consultations to discuss contraceptive options tailored to your needs. Whether you're interested in birth control pills, patches, rings, or long-acting reversible contraceptives, we can provide prescriptions and follow-up care.

Menopause Care

For those experiencing menopause symptoms, we offer hormone therapy consultations and management of issues like vaginal dryness and hot flashes.

Benefits of Telemedicine for Sexual Health

Increased Privacy: Many patients feel more comfortable discussing sensitive topics from home rather than in-office.

Improved Access: Telemedicine eliminates transportation barriers, allowing us to reach patients in rural areas or those with limited mobility.

Convenience: Schedule appointments that fit your busy life without taking time off work or arranging childcare.

Continuity of Care: Regular check-ins and medication management are easy to maintain through virtual visits.

Reduced Stigma: Some patients avoid seeking sexual health care due to embarrassment. Telemedicine provides a discreet alternative.

Remember, while telemedicine is an excellent option for many services, some situations may still require in-person visits. An experienced doctor can guide you to the most appropriate care for your individual needs.

Your sexual health is important, and experienced doctors who practice telemedicine can support you every step of the way. Our practice is committed to providing high-quality, evidence-based care while prioritizing patients' comfort and convenience. Our secure platform ensures your privacy, and our experienced providers are here to address all your sexual health needs.
