How STI Testing can help

Testing is a critical part of caring for yourself. This appointment offers a discreet way to know your status and confidently move forward.

In a Tia clinic, or using the self-collection option, you can be tested for a spectrum of STIs. If any results are positive, a provider will contact you to prescribe treatment and discuss next steps, such as partner notification.

Important: This appointment is for testing only. If you have active symptoms (like sores or discharge) or a known high-risk exposure, you will need to book an STI Consultation for a full provider visit, exam, diagnosis, and care plan.

If any of your screenings come back positive for an STI, your provider will notify you and prescribe treatment. Treatment might include antibiotics (such as ceftriaxone or doxycycline) or antivirals (such as acyclovir).

If you do have an infection, you might need to inform all sexual partners within the last 6 months or since your last negative STI test. Those partners should also be tested. There are anonymous ways to inform previous sexual partners such as STD Check.
