  If you SMS “A1” to 19SEXTXT, you will receive an instant reply containing information on STIs.

   

  We recommend you save the Menu Options list in your phone so that you have them handy next time you need them.

   

  Once you become familiar with the service and Menu Options you can access information by texting the Menu Option directly to 19SEXTXT. For example, for information regarding oral sex skip the first step and text A2 directly to 19SEXTXT.
