Default Test by post

Hello.

How early after intercourse can I be tested accurately using your postal FHPATH1 test service?

I want to test for chlamydia, gonorrhoea, mycoplasma, ureaplasma, trichomonas and gardnerella.

How accurate will my results be and is this test any less accurate than having a swab taken?

Many thanks.

Hello,
You can do this test after a week of a possible infection. It is a PCR test for all those infection and all is required is a first flow urine sample (you need to make sure that you have not urinated for at least two hours before you produce the sample). It is the same as a urethral swab and is totally reliable.
Best wishes,
José
