Basic Procedure for STD Testing

Sexually transmitted diseases are prevalent in the United Kingdom, making it important for a sexually active adult to have regular sexual checks to identify and diagnose STDs. There are several methods to test for sexually transmitted diseases, but the primary method is through a physical examination. Many STDs, such as genital herpes, syphilis or genital warts can be detected by confidential physical examination at a local testing clinic in London and the provinces.

For example the testing of Chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, Trichomonas Vaginalis, the HIV virus, genital warts and genital herpes require either blood, urine or cell samples to be taken and analyzed, Chlamydia can also be detected by  a urine sample or a swab taken from the urethra, the cervix, rectum, throat or eye. All tests are carried out in complete confidentiality and the results will be with you quickly by unmarked post or by telephone if preferred.
