Sexual Health FAQs
Find out more about STD testing below, or if you want to find out more about our Sexual Health Clinics in Cardiff and the surrounding areas, contact our customer services team by chat, phone, or email.
Symptoms of STDs will vary between people and will vary with the type of STD you may have. Remember, some people with STDs will be asymptomatic, which is why you should get a full sexual health screening every six months. Some signs of an STD include:
- Pain whilst urinating
- Unusual discharge from the penis or vagina
- Painful sores or blisters around the genitals
- For women, bleeding in between periods
- Abdominal pain
You should get tested to ensure the protection of your own health, as well as the health of others. There are also several other reasons why you should get tested for STDs, which include:
- If you are trying for a baby, or are about to start the IVF process (find out more about our pre-pregnancy and IVF screening tests here)
- To support your VISA application if you’re moving to a country that requires HIV-free certification
- If you are showing common STD symptoms and are unsure what might be the cause of it
- If you have had a new sexual partner, or are about to start a new sexual relationship.
If you can’t get to one of our sexual health clinics in Cardiff, you should order one of our Home Testing Kits. We’ll send a sample collection kit to your chosen address along with a prepaid envelope to return it to the laboratory in Cardiff. Once your sample has been tested, we’ll notify you of your results immediately via the online portal.
