Gonorrhoea Testing

Is this Gonorrhoea test accurate?

Yes, this is an accurate test that allows you to test for Gonorrhoea from the comfort and privacy of your own home. However, if you are not sure which STI you may have or are concerned about a risky encounter, we recommend the full STI screen, which tests for a range of sexually transmitted diseases, including chlamydia.

How does Gonorrhoea testing work?

First register online and make payment. We will then post your discreet Gonorrhoea test pack to your home (the postal pack is plain so no one will know what it is). Open the pack, pee into the bottle and send it back in the prepaid packaging provided. If you choose, we can email you when the results are ready. Otherwise, just log in after a day or two to check your Gonorrhoea test results.

When will my Gonorrhoea test arrive?

If you order a Gonorrhoea test before 4pm Monday to Friday, we’ll post it to you first class post same day. Depending upon where you live, your Gonorrhoea test should arrive the next working day or the day after.
