Worried about a test result or symptoms? Prepare your report and questions for a clinician, clarify what needs confirmation, and leave with a follow-up plan. This guide helps you get ready; it does not diagnose you or choose your treatment.
LET’S START WITH YOU
HOW CARE WORKS
Bring the complete result, symptom and exposure dates, and medicine details. You do not need to diagnose yourself.
Ask what was tested, what was not, and whether confirmation or further assessment is needed.
Request clear treatment, partner and precaution instructions specific to the clinician's assessment.
Confirm review or repeat dates, contact arrangements, charges and symptoms needing earlier care.

BEFORE YOUR TEST
Samples can differ by exposure site and timing. Testing too early cannot rule out every infection. Ask for a clear explanation of what is covered and what needs follow-up.
Plan your STD testAFTER TREATMENT
Follow the prescribed treatment. Ask when sexual contact can resume, what partners need, and when to retest. Arrange review if symptoms persist or worsen.

BEFORE YOU BOOK
Arrange a clinical review of the report and bring the test name, specimen and collection date. Ask whether confirmation is needed and what treatment, partner and follow-up instructions apply. Steps differ by infection; do not choose medicine from the internet.
Bring the complete report, not just the word positive or negative, plus symptom and exposure dates, medicines and previous results. Before the appointment, ask how to share the report securely and whether review has a separate charge.
Ask the clinician which infection-specific information to share and what testing or care a partner needs. Keep the discussion nonjudgmental and seek advice if you fear the conversation may be unsafe. Do not share your medicines with someone else.
No. Confirm the service, availability, charges and contact arrangements before attending. Do not wait for a website reply if you need urgent care.
Review the complete testing pathway with a clinician, not the word alone. A positive HIV antibody test needs a follow-up test to confirm it; a laboratory may already have performed this on the same sample. Ask what is complete and what remains, and arrange prompt care if the diagnosis is confirmed. Do not apply this HIV explanation to every STI test.
No. Invalid means the test did not work, not that it found no infection. Follow the product's repeat-testing instructions or contact a healthcare provider to arrange appropriate testing. Give the exposure date and any preventive medicines; do not delay urgent care after a recent possible HIV exposure while trying to obtain a home result.
