How does Instant STI Testing work?

At our Wicklow clinic, we offer reliable instant testing services that will give you full test results within 30 minutes of your samples being collected. Upon arrival for your appointment, you will be shown to a private consultation room where a trained nurse will collect your test samples. These test samples will be processed on-site. After analysis, you will receive your results and a signed pathology report.

I do not have any symptoms. Should I still get tested?

You should still get tested even if you do not have any symptoms. Many STIs do not produce noticeable symptoms, especially in the early stages. Sexually active women and men can carry and spread infections without knowing it.

Regular STD tests are important for maintaining your sexual health and preventing the spread of infections. Early detection through routine testing can help manage and treat infections before they lead to more serious health issues. Regular testing is particularly important if you have multiple sexual partners, have had unprotected sex, or are starting a new relationship.

If you are unsure which tests you need, our Patient Services team can help you determine the most appropriate tests based on your situation. Call today to secure an appointment at a clinic in Wicklow.

What samples do I need to provide for my STI test?

The samples you provide during your STI test appointment will depend on what you are getting tested for. At our Wicklow sexual health clinic, we only provide blood and swab tests for instant testing options.
