HPV Test

Order a test kit online

The human papilloma virus (HPV) is a sexually transmitted virus. Certain strains of the virus can cause genital warts, while others increase your risk of cervical cancer.

The swab test kit looks for the strains of the virus which are associated with cervical cancer. It is easy to use and contains a brush tip swab, which you need to use to collect a sample from your vagina. The test kit comes with detailed instructions.

Return postage and a self-addressed envelope are included, so all you need to do is post your sample to the lab. 

You will receive your results within three days of the lab receiving your sample. Your results will be available in your Superdrug Online Doctor patient record - we never send confidential information via email.

Use our online assessment to order. A Superdrug Online Doctor will complete your prescription for collection at your local pharmacy.

How our service works

  • You will receive your test kit 5-7 working days after you have placed your order.
  • Your test results will be available 3-5 days after your sample reaches the laboratory.
The HPV test checks for high risk types of HPV only. It does not check for the strains of the virus which can cause genital warts.
