STBBI screening
EFFICIENT AND CONFIDENTIAL CONSULTATION AND SCREENING SERVICE AS WELL AS THE RELEVANT ATTENTIVE TREATMENT
Please note that we are currently unable to proceed with any blood tests. A visit consists only of a consultation with the doctor.
Our screening services for sexually transmitted diseases (STD, STI, STBBI) apply equally to men, women, and teenagers. They cover the full range of potential infections:
- Chlamydia;
- Gonorrhea;
- Hepatitis B;
- Hepatitis C;
- Urinary tract infection;
- Syphilis;
- Trichomoniasis;
- Vaginitis;
- Bacterial vaginosis;
- Yeast vaginosis;
- HIV (human immunodeficiency virus);
Other important issues.
HSV-1, or labial herpes, is not generally speaking a sexually transmitted disease. Caused by the presence of a virus in the body, it is an unpleasant minor ailment that tends to be recurrent. It is highly communicable when lesions are present, usually at the outer edge of a lip.
It is good to know that, even though the standard hepatitis B treatment consists of receiving three doses of the vaccine to stimulate the production of the right amount of antibodies, sometimes a single dose will do. A test after two months will confirm if this is the case.
Also, a single negative test is not sufficient to ensure that you have not contracted a sexually transmitted disease. The incubation period of STDs is highly variable. It is thus recommended to undertake a second test in a timely manner. In the case of syphilis, a three-month delay is the norm.
