Product Information

Papp JR, et al. (2014). Recommendations for the laboratory-based detection of Chlamydia trachomatisand Neisseria gonorrhoeae— 2014. At-home chlamydia tests provide accurate results as long as a person carefully follows collection, storage, and return instructions. How often should I get tested?

Testing can help prevent the transmission of STIs. It can also help you get the appropriate treatment if you have a viral, bacterial, or fungal infection, as many STDs and STIs can be treated or cured.

Get tested

Some patients don’t want us to text their test results to their mobiles. If you choose not to have your results texted to you, we’ll let you know your results by post or telephone (whichever you have chosen) only if a result is positive (“abnormal”). Receiving results this way may take longer than by text. Call your provider if you have any questions about the results of your test. If you received a negative test result, but you have symptoms — or if symptoms don’t go away after treatment, see your provider. Are pregnant and under age 25. Pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases can be dangerous for you and your baby. The types of tests you’ll have will vary depending on your situation and on why you’re worried. A nurse or doctor will explain what tests you need and why. It is not possible for a person to receive instant results with an at-home chlamydia test. They will have to send their sample to a lab for analysis. Some labs can return results within 24 hours. Do at-home chlamydia tests work?

You might need to provide a blood or urine same or perform a rectal, oral, or vaginal swab. It’s best to return the samples the same day you take them. The company then sends results through your online account, usually within 1–7 days. Please note: STIs do not show up immediately in test results so you might be given the all-clear by mistake if you take the sample too soon. If you’re testing for Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea only, we recommend waiting to take your samples until 2 weeks has passed since the unprotected sex that you’re worried about. If you’re testing for HIV and Syphilis, it can take up to 12 weeks for these to show up in tests so you might want to wait or re-test once 12 weeks has passed. When and how will you get your results?
