How does it work?
It is possible for us to screen for many of the common STI's based on an home test kit ordered over the phone or via our website using a laboratory technique called Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). PCR is a molecular technique that allows a small amount of DNA to be amplified exponentially. Many bacteria and viruses contain specific sequences of DNA like a genetic fingerprint which can then be identified by PCR. Seven tests can be carried out by PCR for the following infections: Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, Mycoplasma, Ureaplasma, Gardnerella, Trichomonas & Herpes Simplex I/II. These results are of course confidential.
If you are not sure which Test Kit is best for you, please call 0117 92 999 00 and ask to speak to our Sexual Health Nurse or email any questions to clinic@clinic-express.co.uk
Testing too early
Testing too quickly after you have run a risk of infection may result in a false negative (no infection found) result being given to you as infections may not show up on the test for some weeks. Although you should contact a healthcare provider as soon as possible if you have been at risk, when performing laboratory testing for Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea for example it is recommended that you additionally test two weeks after your risk (sex with the person you are worried about).
