What Is It

What is Venereology?

Venereology is the branch of medicine concerned with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and their related skin and systemic manifestations. Venereological care requires a physician trained in STI clinical presentation, laboratory diagnosis, and the psychological sensitivity these consultations demand.

STIs are common, treatable, and nothing to be ashamed of. However, they require accurate diagnosis, appropriate treatment, and partner notification to prevent ongoing transmission. Self-treatment or treatment based on online information is frequently incorrect and can mask symptoms while infection progresses.

At Dr. More's clinic, venereological consultations are conducted with complete confidentiality, zero judgment, and clinical precision. Your privacy is protected absolutely — consultations and results are never disclosed without your explicit consent.

Conditions We Diagnose & Treat

STIs & Venereological Conditions We Manage

Accurate, confidential, and complete management of all sexually transmitted infections — from diagnosis to treatment to partner guidance.

🔴

Syphilis

Caused by Treponema pallidum, progressing through primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary stages with distinct presentations. Serological testing (VDRL, TPHA) is the cornerstone of diagnosis. Benzathine penicillin is highly effective and curative when administered at the appropriate stage.

💛

Gonorrhoea

Caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Increasing antibiotic resistance makes accurate microbiological culture and sensitivity essential. Treatment prescribed in accordance with current National STI management guidelines.

🔵

Genital Herpes (HSV)

Herpes simplex virus causing recurrent painful genital ulcers. Diagnosed clinically or by viral PCR. Antiviral therapy (acyclovir, valacyclovir) available for acute episodes and long-term suppressive therapy for frequent recurrences.

🌿

Genital Warts (HPV)

HPV presenting as flesh-coloured papules in the genital, perianal, or oral region. Multiple treatment modalities — topical (podophyllotoxin, imiquimod), electrocautery, laser ablation. Partner examination and vaccination counselling are important components.

⚪

Chlamydia & Non-Gonococcal Urethritis

The most common bacterial STI globally — frequently asymptomatic. NAAT testing is highly sensitive. Treated effectively with azithromycin or doxycycline. Partner testing and treatment is essential to prevent reinfection.

🔶

Other STIs & Related Conditions

Chancroid, LGV, donovanosis, molluscum contagiosum, scabies, pubic lice — all requiring specific diagnosis and treatment. HIV counselling, testing referral, and PrEP information also available.

Common Questions

Venereology — Frequently Asked Questions

Private, honest answers to common questions about STIs and venereological conditions.

Are consultations completely confidential?

+

Yes, absolutely. All consultations, examinations, and test results are completely confidential. Information is never disclosed to any third party — including family members or employers — without your explicit written consent. Your medical records are stored securely and accessed only by your treating physician.

I have symptoms but I'm embarrassed to see a doctor. What should I do?

+

This is an extremely common feeling — and it prevents many people from getting effective treatment. Dr. More conducts venereological consultations with complete clinical objectivity and zero judgment. You will not be lectured, shamed, or treated differently because of your condition.

Do I need to bring my partner for testing?

+

Partner testing and treatment is strongly recommended for all STIs — to protect your partner's health and prevent your own reinfection after treatment. Your partner does not need to attend the same clinic; alternative arrangements can be discussed.

Can I get tested without symptoms?

+

Yes, and this is frequently appropriate. Many STIs (chlamydia, early syphilis, HIV) are asymptomatic. Screening is appropriate after unprotected sexual contact with a new or unknown-status partner. Dr. More will advise on appropriate screening based on your history.

Are STIs curable?

+

Bacterial STIs (syphilis, gonorrhoea, chlamydia, chancroid) are completely curable with appropriate antibiotic therapy. Viral STIs (herpes, HPV) cannot currently be permanently cured, but antiviral options achieve excellent symptom control and reduce transmission. HIV is manageable as a chronic condition allowing near-normal life expectancy.

Will my results be shared with anyone?

+

No. Results are shared only with you. They are not shared with your employer, family, or insurance company. Your confidentiality is protected within the full extent of applicable medical ethics and law.
