STD Home Testing

Going to a clinic to get tested for sexually transmitted diseases can be embarrassing and time consuming. Better2Know’s Home collection service gives you the option for fast, confidential results at home. The process is simple. Purchase a test here and we will post you a sample collection kit. Just collect a urine sample and post in back to us in the prepaid envelope provided**. An e-mail will be sent to you when your results are ready, and log into our secure website for your results. If you are positive, we can arrange a consultation with a private GP. To learn more about the process, please click on How It Works.

You can get tested for many common STDs and STIs including Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea and Herpes. If you are looking for complete peace of mind, we offer a sexual health screen that checks for all of these and more.

HIV Testing

Some web sites offer HIV testing by post. These are not currently recognised in the UK, and are not CE marked tests. We do not, as we do not want to offer a test that has not been accredited.   We hope this will change soon, and there is an HIV test going through accreditation at the moment. However, Better2Know has the largest network of private clinics in the UK offering HIV Testing and STI Testing. If you want an HIV test, please click here and we can arrange a test at private clinics around the UK with fast, confidential results. Our clinics also provide all STI and STD Tests including HIV, HPV (Genital Warts), Herpes and more.
