What To Expect When Visiting Our Private Sexual Health Clinic On the Isle Of Man

Our clinics are based in a discreet setting; there is no reason anyone will know you’re there for a sexual health screening. Let our receptionist know who you are upon arrival. One of our friendly medical practitioners will greet you, who’ll collect your samples depending on the test you have booked. Once you’ve deposited your sample with us, we will take care of the rest.

Where You Will Find Us

What Happens Once I’ve Deposited My Sample?

Once you have deposited your sample, it will be submitted to our laboratory for analysis. Turnaround times will vary depending on the test you take, but you will be notified via your preferred contact method as soon as we receive your results. We aim to get them to you as soon as we can 

If your results come back positive,  you will be offered a complimentary GP appointment with our partner medical organisation. They will support you in getting treatment if it is necessary.

FAQs

Most STDs aren’t detectable straight away. You should wait at least 14 days before testing for chlamydia or gonorrhoea. You should wait at least 28 days before testing for HIV, syphilis, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C.  To learn more about testing times for specific STDs, read our dedicated blog.

Some STD tests are available with the National Health Service (NHS), which are free. You should normally expect a 2-3 week turnaround time between the test and the result. If you feel that the wait time is too long, here at Your Sexual Health, we provide private STD tests. Our turnaround times are between 2-5 days to get you your results. These can be accessed at our private sexual health clinic on the Isle Of Man or at any of our other clinics in the UK. You can also opt to have your test at home.

It’s best to wait after the incubation period to pass before you visit a Sexual Health clinic to be tested and treated. The HIV incubation period is 2 to 4 weeks after infection, syphilis has an incubation period of up to three weeks, and chlamydia has a 7 to 21-day incubation period.  You can read more about this in our dedicated blog.
