After sex with someone new, or a situation where protection did not happen, it is easy to feel physically fine but still not know what you have been exposed to. Many sexually transmitted infections cause no symptoms, or symptoms that come and go, so waiting for signs is not a reliable strategy. This home blood test and multi-site screen is built for gay and bisexual men and others who have sex with men, where accurate testing across genital, oral, and rectal sites matters.

The panel checks for key bacterial and viral infections, including HIV 1 and 2, syphilis (IgG and IgM), chlamydia and gonorrhoea, with hepatitis B and C included where exposure risk is higher. Chlamydia and gonorrhoea are assessed from the sites where infection can be present without obvious symptoms, while the blood sample helps identify infections such as HIV, syphilis and hepatitis that are not reliably detected from swabs alone. Results give you a clear baseline so you can make informed decisions about treatment, partner notification, or whether any follow-up testing is needed.

Timing matters because infections take time to become detectable. If you are testing after a specific encounter, aim to do your testing from home at least four weeks after sex for the most reliable overall picture. If you have symptoms, test now and follow up if advised, as early tests can sometimes need repeating. This home test kit is designed to replace guesswork with clear, clinically grounded information, so your next steps are based on evidence rather than anxiety.

Where advanced diagnostics are used, PCR testing can detect very small amounts of genetic material from infections such as chlamydia and gonorrhoea, supporting high sensitivity. If your results indicate an infection or require confirmation, you will be guided on the appropriate next steps.
