Hepatitis B & C tests in London
Hepatitis is a virus that can cause chronic long-term illness and permanent damage to the liver if left untreated. The condition is more infectious than HIV, so a mother for example, if unaware that he is carrying the infection, can pass this to the baby and be at extreme risk of becoming seriously ill.
Hepatitis is passed from person to person through exchange of bodily fluids with infected people. The virus is spread with needles, tattooing for instance, sexual intercourse and mother to child. Hepatitis is estimated to be 50 to 100 times more infectious than HIV. Symptoms can take the form of nausea, diarrhoea, vomiting, itchy skin, weight loss, loss of appetite, jaundice. Anyone showing any of these signs are advised to seek a test at one of the STD testing centres in London and other major cities in the UK. All testing is completely confidential and the result will be given to you quickly either in person, by telephone or mail.
Important HIV testing news
The recently reported Mexican flu pandemic has raised concerns with health professionals, who are once again worried about gay and bisexual men and men with multiple partners. These groups are the most likely to contract HIV, which is a virus that attacks the body’s immune system, leading to the body’s inability to defend against diseases such as the flu. The latest research suggests that between 70 and 90 per cent of people may experience symptoms of infection a few days after having been infected.
If you fall into these groups, worried about HIV or other STDs and want peace of mind, we strongly recommend you get a complete STD screen or an HIV test. There are many centres in London that undertake testing for HIV and other STD’s and also in major centres in the UK such as Manchester and Birmingham. There are three basic kinds of HIV tests depending on when you may have been exposed you should contact the test centre and discuss this with them.

What should I do if I have a STD?
This is a question that is the most common when we carry out STD tests at one of our London Clinics, or the others which are to be found in major cities in the UK, Manchester or Birmingham for instance. The first thing that you should do is to tell all sexual partners who may have been exposed. Try to get them to get tested. If you feel that you cannot tell your partner, tell your health provider who help you in this difficult task.
You and your current sexual partners need to get treated at the same time to prevent re-infecting each other. Make sure you follow your health care provider’s directions on taking medications and make sure you finish all of the medicine prescribed, even if you feel better. After treatment have a follow-up exam with your health care provider. Do not have sex again until your health care provider says you are cured. Most STD’s can be cured and the first thing to do is to take an STD test.
