Home Chlamydia Test

(Anon or delete please :smile: )

I've just gone on one of the NHS sites where you can get the test thing sent to you and then send it back.

Do you know how long it takes to arrive? And how long to get your results back?

Cheers :tongue:

With the NHS? Could be anywhere up to 2 weeks! For results, you won't get any if it's positive. If negative, they alert you typically on the day, or day after your results are seen in the lab.

NHS takes pretty long with these things (understandably) I would personally get a private home sti test if I was you.
I just got mine back in 4 days, got an all clear text wooooo (was a urine sample)
Adding to that: mine was NHS at my uni clinic, also does anyone know if the nhs tests just check for chlamydia or do they check gonnorhea too? thanks
It depends. For 'wee on this and post it off', it may just be chlamydia. For a clinic-based test, I'd expect them to test for more than that (you can get sticks that test for multiple things)... but either way, they should tell you what they're going to test for.
