WHAT HAPPENS ONCE MY SAMPLE IS DEPOSITED IN THE CLINIC IN TELFORD?

Once you have deposited your sample at our clinic, we will be in touch with you in a matter of days. Our usual turnaround time is 3 to 5 days. If your sample needs to be tested over a weekend then you may have an additional day to wait before receiving your result.

You shouldn’t assume that the longer your sample stays with us is indicative of a positive result. Sometimes results take longer to show on a sample-to-sample basis.

FAQS

Your sexual health check-up will consist of a small number of questions relating to your sexual practices and safety. These questions will consist of:

  • When did you last have sex?
  • Whether you've had unprotected sex.
  • Whether you have any symptoms.
  • Why do you think you might have an infection?
For a number of reasons, you may find these questions insensitive. If that is the case then you can refuse to answer any questions asked. However, answering the few questions asked in your screening will lead to a more accurate assessment of your sexual health.

You will then be asked to provide either a urine, blood or swab sample based on the advice of the sexual health practitioner present.

Some sexually transmitted diseases can be detected through a urine sample. A urinalysis can give clues to the presence of sexually transmitted infections. A positive test for leukocyte esterase or increased numbers of white blood cells in the exam is suggestive of chlamydia or gonorrhoea infection.

Your Sexual Health provides hassle-free and completely confidential STI urine tests which test for chlamydia or gonorrhoea quicker than the tests offered by the NHS.

It is our advice that you get tested if you have any concerns about your sexual health.

It's considered to be good practice to get a sexual health check-up before starting with a new partner. Relationships can be tricky during the first few encounters, and passing an STI onto a new partner is not only embarrassing for you but could lead to medical consequences for both of you.
