Seeking medical treatment after a sexual assault is critical to the victim’s health. A person may choose not to receive treatment because they don’t think they have any injuries to be treated, but there may be undetected injuries. Undetected injuries may include internal trauma, contraction of sexually transmitted infections, and shock.
Victims should also seek medical assistance to determine if a pregnancy may occur.
Additionally, victims must be treated by medical professional in order to obtain important evidence used by authorities to identify the attacker. Medical staff is trained to carefully identify, collect, and preserve samples body fluids and other types of evidence that may be present on the victim and their clothing. Collecting evidence immediately after the assault is critical, as the evidence may not be as reliable after the victim showers or washes clothing.
