Chlamydia Testing in Rockhampton

Chlamydia is one of the most common STIs in Rockhampton.  It is easily passed on from one partner to another during sex.  If left untreated it can cause long term health problems and may lead to infertility and other health issues.

You can catch Chlamydia in your genital area, throat (if you gave oral sex) or your rectum (if you received anal sex).  You will need to test each area that might have Chlamydia.

A simple urine sample will test for Chlamydia in your genital area. Your Chlamydia test result will be available in Rockhampton in just a few days. If you do test positive, we will help you to access the treatment you need to get better.

Chlamydia often does not have any symptoms. The only way to know if you are infected is to get tested in your nearest clinic in Rockhampton.

What are the symptoms of STIs?

Many STIs do not present symptoms in the early and sometimes even later stages of infection. Symptoms will also often vary between infection and person. Regular testing in Rockhampton with your local Better2Know clinic is the only way to keep yourself and your partners safe from STIs.

Some signs of an STI infection are:

  • pain when urinating or during sex

  • lumps or lesions on the genital area

  • unusual discharge

  • pain in the lower back and kidney area

  • flu-like symptoms

  • swelling of the penis and/or testicles

  • sore throat

  • body rashes

If you have one or any of these symptoms, you should test right away. You can book your appointment quickly and easily with Better2Know at one of our many clinics in Rockhampton. With our flexible and available booking options you can get your test and results within just a few days.

Tests can be run on simple blood samples, self-collection urine samples and swab samples. Each sample is collected by a highly trained doctor or nurse in Rockhampton.

Testing with Better2Know in Rockhampton will give you a fast and accurate diagnosis and excellent onward care and support.

What is the difference between and STD and an STI?

Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) and Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) are ultimately the same thing. The term STI has become more commonly used, as the word infection is not as daunting as the word disease. By using the word infection in place of the word disease, people are encouraged to get tested more regularly and to not be afraid of the result.

If you develop symptoms such as itching, soreness when urinating or blisters on the genital area, these are good indicators that you have an STI. Ignoring these symptoms can increase your chances of further serious health complications.

That is why regular testing in Rockhampton is imperative especially after a new sexual encounter. Better2Know’s wide range of sexual health testing in Rockhampton will provide you with the information you need, whether you have an STI, STD or even nothing!
