Back to Sexual health. If you've been sexually assaulted it's important to remember that it was not your fault. Sexual violence is a crime, no matter who commits it or where it happens. Don't be afraid to get help. There are services that can help if you've been sexually assaulted, raped or abused.

You don't have to report the assault to the police if you don't want to. You may need time to think about what has happened to you. But you should get medical help for any injuries and because you may be at risk of pregnancy or sexually transmitted infections STIs. If you want the crime to be investigated, it's best to have a forensic medical examination as soon as possible.

Try not to wash or change your clothes immediately after a sexual assault. This may destroy forensic evidence that could be important if you decide to report the assault to the police although you can still go to the police even if you have washed. Sexual assault referral centres SARCs offer medical, practical and emotional support to anyone who has been raped, sexually assaulted or abused.

SARCs have specially trained doctors, nurses and support workers to care for you. You can get help from a SARC by booking an appointment with your nearest one.

If you decide to report the assault to the police, specially trained advisors can support you through the criminal justice system. They can also support you through the trial if the case goes to court. Forensic medical examinations can be arranged, even if you have not decided if you want to report the assault.

It's a chance to check for injuries and infections and collect possible evidence. SARCs have private rooms and specially trained doctors and nurses. You can ask for a male or female examiner and choose who is in the room with you.

A doctor or nurse will ask you health questions, for example about the assault or recent sexual activity. If you choose, they can collect swabs and other samples.
