Male STI test: Chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis & HIV

If your test result is ‘negative’ we'll upload the results into your Patient Record, which you can access by logging in through our website.

If your HIV result is 'reactive' (i.e. potentially positive) or indeterminate, we will phone you to discuss these results with you. If we cannot get through, we will send you a message asking that you at arrange a telephone consultation through your patient record as soon as possible.  We may also need to contact you if your sample is labelled incorrectly.

If you test positive for chlamydia we will offer you free antibiotic treatment, provided that it is clinically appropriate.

If you test positive for gonorrhoea, syphilis or HIV, then we will advise you to attend your local sexual health clinic for further advice and treatment.

Please note, no test is 100% accurate but it should pick up these STIs if it is done at the correct time. If you are in any doubt, we advise that you go to you nearest sexual health clinic, or visit your GP.

This test kit is not suitable for you if you think you have been exposed to HIV within the last 72 hours, if you have any symptoms, you have tested positive for chlamydia or gonorrhoea in the last 6 weeks, or if you have tested positive for HIV in the past.

If you think you have been exposed to HIV within the last 72 hours, you should seek URGENT medical advice from your local sexual health clinic, GP or Accident & Emergency, as HIV Post-Exposure Prophylaxis (PEP) may be recommended as treatment.

If you have symptoms, you should NOT use this service. You require a face to face assessment at your local sexual health clinic or GP. If you have a skin rash; flu-like illness; fever; sore throat; headache; swollen lymph nodes; and think you are at risk of having HIV, you should seek URGENT medical advice from your local sexual health clinic or GP.

If you are known to be HIV positive or have recently tested positive, you should seek medical advice from your local sexual health clinic or GP.

If you have tested positive for Syphilis or HIV in the past, you can purchase one of our test kits that does not test for these infections.

Your test results will be completely confidential. We will not inform your GP or anyone else of your test results or that you have used our service unless you specifically ask us to.
