  • Place an order and get your kit delivered to your door (delivery is free)

  • Collect your sample by following the instructions in the test kit

  • Send your samples to our UK-based, accredited partner laboratory (postage is free) 

  • Once your results are available (in 2 to 3 days), our doctors will review your results  

  • One of our doctors will contact you, via a secure and confidential message in your patient account, to let you know your results and give you advice and support on what to do next

In some cases, the doctor may need to ask for more information. They may contact you by phone, so make sure your telephone number is up to date in your online account.

How our service works

  • Order before 4pm and we will send your test kit the same day. Orders received after 4pm will be sent out the next working day.
  • Your test kit will be posted to you via your choice of standard or next day delivery.
  • Your test results will be available 2-3 days after your sample reaches the laboratory.

For chlamydia and gonorrhoea, you should wait to test for 2 weeks after you think you contracted them. This is because they are not likely to show up on a test taken before then.

There is a small chance that any recently acquired infections may not show up on a test. If you get a negative result, you should repeat the test 6 weeks after the incident to make sure that any recent infections are detected.
