A convenient STI check, which can be done from the comfort of your home. The test covers some of the commonly sexually transmitted infections including chlamydia, gonorrhoea and trichomonas.

Why do an STI Test?

Many STI’s don’t show any symptoms or have very mild ones, yet if left untreated can have a significant impact on your fertility and general health. You can actively transmit an STI to your partner even if you are asymptomatic.

Most STI’s are either curable or treatable, so it is important to undergo regular tests to avoid complications. If you think you may have contracted an STI, it is important to be tested as early as possible.

The only way to know your status is by testing regularly.

1 in 4 people contract an STI at some stage in their life

1 in 10 women with untreated chlamydia develop pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) within a year

1 in 10 women with PID experience infertility

Anti-mullerian Hormone

Because of its close links to your eggs, we test AMH as it is a good indicator of your ‘ovarian reserve’, aka how many eggs you have left. Generally speaking, the more eggs you have, the higher the level of AMH in your blood.

Follicle-Stimulating Hormone

Testing FSH can help diagnose or evaluate a number of reproductive health matters. These include menopause, polycystic ovary syndrome, ovarian cysts, abnormal vaginal or menstrual bleeding or fertility problems.

Oestradiol

We test oestradiol as it indicates how well the ovaries are working and can give an insight into abnormal periods, bleeding and fertility.

Luteinising
hormone

We test LH as it alerts your body that it is time to ovulate (release the egg from your ovary). The fine tuning of LH is vital to maintaining fertility.

Progesterone

We test progesterone to determine if ovulation is occurring and to explain fertility problems.

Prolactin

We test prolactin to identify irregular periods or fertility problems. The test can also rule out other pituitary gland or hypothalamus problems.

Testosterone

We test testosterone as it plays an important role in the following: bone health, breast health, fertility, sex drive and menstrual and vaginal health. Testing testosterone can also highlight health conditions such as Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

Sex Hormone
Binding Globulin

An SHBG test is most often used to find out how much testosterone is going to the body's tissues. This test can help determine the cause of: irregular or missed periods, infertility, acne and excess facial and body hair.

Thyroid stimulating
hormone

We test TSH to determine the underlying cause of abnormal thyroid hormone levels. TSH is also used to screen for an underactive or overactive thyroid gland and its levels can affect ovulation.

Thyroxine hormone

We test T4 to help explain irregular periods or fertility problems as an overactive thyroid (hypothyroidism) can prevent ovulation.

Triiodothyronine

We test T3 as it is an indicator of how much thyroid hormone is being produced and can help to identify if your thyroid gland is performing at an optimal level.

Anti Thyroperoxidase
Antibodies

We test for Anti-TG to identify diseases such as thyroiditis.

Anti Thyroglobulin

We test Anti-TPO antibodies as their presence can suggest that the cause of a thyroid disease is an auto-immune disorder such as Hashimoto’s disease or Grave’s disease.

What do we test?

We test up to 3 of the most common STI’s using a simple swab test. These tests include: Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea and Trichominosis.

When to test?

The frequency of testing will be based on your individual risk factors and nature of sexual relationships.

If you have only sexual partner who is not sexually active with anyone else, you should undergo annual screening.
If you have multiple partners or are sexually active with someone who is sexually active with other partners you should undergo screening every 3-6 months.
You should undergo screening before starting any new sexual relationship.
You should undergo screening if you are experiencing symptoms.
You should undergo screening if your partner(s) have been diagnosed with an STI.
You should undergo screening if you think you have been exposed to an STI.
You regularly have or had unprotected sex.

STIs can take a period of time to become detectable, testing immediately after you think you have been exposed can result in a false negative result.
You should wait at least 4 weeks from the time of potential exposure to infection before taking this test.
Please abstain from any sexual activity during the waiting period as you could actively transmit it to your partner even if you show no symptoms.
