Extended STI Test Kit
Test discreetly for a majority of STIs from the comfort of your home. Collect your sample and send it to our partner lab via Free Post. Get a complete results report from our doctors and straightforward advice on what to do next within 72 hours.
Our extended STI (sexually transmitted infection) test kit checks for the following infections:
- chlamydia
- gonorrhea
- herpes
- mycoplasma
- ureaplasma
- gardnerella
- trichomonas
The test is a PCR test which is the most accurate method of identifying infections from urine or swab samples.
If you have had unprotected sex or think you might have caught an STI, you should wait 14 days before taking this test. It takes up to 2 weeks for symptoms to appear. You will receive your results within 4 to 5 days of your sample reaching the lab.
If you think you may have been exposed to HIV in the last 72 hours please visit your local sexual health clinic immediately.
This kit may not detect herpes if you do not have active lesions at the time of testing. If you are concerned that you might have herpes, we would recommend that you take a swab test of the area, using a test that is specifically designed for herpes detection.
For women, the test consists of a swab which looks like a large cotton bud. This is inserted into the vagina to get a sample. For men the test uses a urine sample.
To take a home test follow these steps:
- Place an order and get your kit delivered to your door (delivery is free)
- Collect your sample by following the instructions in the test kit
- Send your samples to our UK-based, accredited partner laboratory (postage is free)
- Once your results are available (in 4 to 5 days), our doctors will review your results
- One of our doctors will contact you, via a secure and confidential message in your patient account, to let you know your results and give you advice and support on what to do next
In some cases, the doctor may need to ask for more information. They may contact you by phone, so make sure your telephone number is up to date in your online account.
