by appointment only<br />
ENGLISH<br />
At Hein & Fiete you have the opportunity to get free and anonymous counseling<br />

chlamydial infections.<br />
Counseling and testing are available every<br />

results can be communicated by telephone<br />
during a subsequent consultation hour.<br />

Öffnungszeiten/<br />
Opening hours:<br />
Mo–Fr 16:00–20:00<br />
your distance and disinfecting your hands.<br />
Anyone who has symptoms of a cold or a<br />
fever cannot take advantage of the offer.<br />
We are currently not offering throat swabs<br />
for chlamydia or gonococci.<br />
The laboratory test is an antibody / antigen<br />
combination test and can therefore provide<br />
a reliable result just 6 weeks after exposure<br />
to risk. In order to carry out a rapid test, it<br />
makes sense to wait 12 weeks after a risk<br />
contact. This wait is necessary as only then is<br />
the result meaningful, because the rapid test<br />
is purely an antibody test.<br />
The consultations are carried out by our<br />
trained, gay counselors. In addition to<br />
obtaining information about safer sex<br />
messages and strategies to minimize risk,<br />
they offer you the opportunity to focus on<br />
your own sexual behavior, as well as to<br />
strengthen your individual health awareness<br />
and knowledge about current developments<br />
in STI prevention. On top of this, the different<br />
protection options for various sexually<br />
transmitted infections can be discussed in<br />
the consultation.<br />
This offer takes place in cooperation with the<br />
CASAblanca counseling center.<br />
If you want to know what to expect from<br />
counseling and testing here at Hein & Fiete,<br />

website www.heinfiete.de. If you have any<br />
questions, feel free to call or to just drop by<br />
the checkpoint. (ts,mb)<br />
