Accurate, discreet, and non-judgmental sexual health evaluations. Whether you have concerning symptoms or simply desire routine assurance, our experienced doctors provide clear answers quickly.
Some sexually transmitted infections have no noticeable symptoms. A confidential conversation with a doctor can help you decide whether testing is right for you.
Ask about confidential testing
Testing can be useful after a possible exposure, when you have symptoms, before a new relationship, or as part of routine sexual health care. A doctor can help you choose appropriate tests and timing.
Choose the testing option that best suits your situation. Our doctors can recommend the appropriate tests based on your history, symptoms, exposure and clinical findings.
Several tests can be combined depending on your individual risk factors and clinical needs.
Additional urine, swab and PCR investigations are also available. Your doctor will recommend the most appropriate tests based on your exposure, symptoms and examination.
Request a confidential testing visitPlease hold your urine for at least 1 to 2 hours before providing your sample at the clinic. The first-catch urine contains the highest concentration of organisms.
No fasting is required for standard sexual health blood panels. You may eat and drink normally before attending.
If you have active genital sores or discharge, do not apply any topical creams or antiseptic washes on the day of your visit so swabs can be accurately taken.
A window period is the time between a possible exposure and when a test can usually detect HIV. These ranges are general information, not a diagnosis or a personalised testing schedule.
10–33 days
Usual detection window after exposure
Looks for the virus in a blood sample. A doctor may recommend it in particular circumstances; ask about availability.
18–45 days
Usual detection window after exposure
Uses blood drawn from a vein. Sometimes called a fourth-generation or combination test.
18–90 days
Usual detection window after exposure
Uses blood from a finger prick. Its window period differs from a laboratory combination test.
23–90 days
Usual detection window after exposure
Most rapid tests and self-tests are antibody tests. Check which test you are using with your provider.
No HIV test detects infection immediately. A negative result within the window period may need follow-up. These ranges describe testing in the absence of antiretroviral medication; tell your clinician if you use or recently used PEP or PrEP. A reactive result needs follow-up testing.
This guide does not determine whether you have an infection, assess exposure risk, or confirm which tests the clinic currently offers. A clinician can help you choose the test and timing.

Talk to our team →There is no single panel that answers every concern. Your doctor will discuss symptoms, the type and timing of exposure, and appropriate blood, urine or swab tests.
Turnaround depends on the test and laboratory. Ask the clinic to confirm the expected time and how your results will be communicated before testing.
Contact the clinic before your visit for test-specific instructions. Mention current medication, recent testing and any PEP or PrEP use to your doctor.
A test taken within its window period may not detect a recent infection. Follow-up testing may be needed. PEP and PrEP can affect interpretation and testing schedules.
