Unlike girls, many guys don't go for regular medical checks of their sexual and reproductive organs, unless they have a problem. But it's a good idea for guys to see a doctor, get checked out and ask any questions before a problem arises. If you are having oral, vaginal or anal sex, then you need to get tested regularly for STDs. There are places that specialize in caring for teenagers.

You can see your regular doctor for most sexual health questions. If you don't feel comfortable talking to your doctor, you could also find a health clinic for or a family planning clinic.

When you go to a Title X clinic for health care services or counseling, your visit is totally confidential. Your records are not shared with anyone, unless you ask them to do so. Title X clinics are teen-friendly, confidential and base their payments on a sliding-scale fee (which means you pay what you can). Planned Parenthood is one of many Title X clinics.

You can find Title X clinics near you online, or you can call 1-800-230-PLAN (7526) to be connected automatically to the Planned Parenthood health center nearest you.

Outside of regular checkups, you should take a trip to a clinic or regular doctor if you have problems like genital rashes, discharges, unusual bumps or sores. Guys who have a lot of trouble getting or keeping an erection or ejaculating should also see a doctor or get a referral to a urologist if it happens more than half the time.
