How our at-home STD testing service works

A secure order and simple activation set the stage for accurate sample collection and fast lab processing.

We guide you through ordering, activation, and ID verification so your tests link to a private account from the start.

Order, activate, and collect

After activation, collect morning urine, a finger-prick blood spot, or targeted swabs as directed. Morning collection improves specimen quality and gives labs a reliable start.

Pickup and lab processing

We arrange free pickup so your sample reaches accredited labs quickly. Clinical-grade assays produce partial results in about 24–48 hours and a full report within seven days.

Results, consultation, and next steps

We deliver results securely in your portal. If findings need review, we offer a virtual consultation to discuss next steps and tailor care.

  • Prescriptions and partner care: when clinically appropriate, we help get timely medication and guidance for notifying partners.
  • Borderline findings: we explain repeat windows and confirmatory workflows clearly.
  • Urgent escalation: message our clinicians securely for clarification or faster action.

What we test for in our comprehensive panels

We screen a wide range of viral and bacterial markers so you get a clear snapshot of risk for common infections. Results are organized per condition, with partial findings in 24–48 hours and full reports within seven days.

HIV I & II (ELISA)

We use ELISA as the primary assay for hiv because it reliably detects antibodies with clinical sensitivity suitable for remote collection.

Hepatitis markers

Panels include HBsAg and Anti-HCV to identify current or prior hepatitis exposure that may need follow-up care.

Bacterial coverage

We screen Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, and Trichomoniasis. Urine is preferred for many bacterial urine infections; swabs are used when site-specific sampling improves accuracy.

Syphilis and herpes

Syphilis uses VDRL with confirmatory TPHA/TPAB to improve specificity. For simplex virus, HSV-2 IgG and IgM help identify prior exposure versus possible recent infection, with noted limitations on early detection.

Test Group Marker Sample Turnaround
Viral HIV I & II (ELISA) Blood 24–48h (partial)
Hepatitis HBsAg, Anti-HCV Blood 7 days (complete)
Bacterial Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Trichomonas Urine/Swab 24–48h (partial)

Panel breadth reduces missed diseases and makes interpretation straightforward for you and your clinician. We outline retest windows and confirmatory pathways when needed for clear next steps in sexual health care and std testing.

Who should test and when

Understanding risk and timing makes screening more effective and less stressful. We outline who benefits from screening and how often to consider it based on exposure and risk.

Higher-risk situations and regular screening cadence

If you had unprotected sex, a new partner, multiple partners, or a known exposure, we recommend prompt evaluation and a plan for regular testing.

For ongoing risk, a routine schedule of every 3–12 months is common. We tailor cadence during your consultation to fit your circumstances.

Symptoms to watch for

Many infections show no signs, so absence of symptoms does not rule out infection.

When symptoms appear, common examples include unusual discharge, sores, or burning on urination. Report any of these during your visit so we can choose the right panel.

Window periods and optimal timelines

Different sexually transmitted infections have different window periods. Some markers appear in days; others take weeks or months.

A negative result soon after exposure may need a repeat at the appropriate interval to confirm status and exclude false negatives.

Scenario Action When to test
Unprotected exposure Full panel Now and repeat at 4–12 weeks
New or multiple partners Routine screening Every 3–12 months
Symptoms present Targeted tests As soon as possible

Sample collection made simple

Collecting reliable samples is easier than you think when clear steps and the right tools are included.

Our kits include plain instructions and all supplies for three common collection methods. We walk you through each step so samples arrive lab-ready and uncontaminated.

Urine collection for common bacterial infections

We provide a clean-catch urine cup and easy directions. Collect midstream urine after a short cleanse to improve accuracy for many bacterial tests and stis.

Finger-prick blood for HIV, hepatitis, and syphilis markers

Included lancets and collection cards make finger-prick blood simple and safe. We show how to warm your hand, perform a quick prick, and place drops correctly for serum-based markers.

Targeted swabs for mouth, genital, or anal sampling

When exposures require it, we include swabs and site-specific instructions. Targeted swabs help detect infections where urine or blood would miss the site of exposure.

  • Step-by-step guides to avoid contamination and seal samples correctly.
  • Morning collection improves yield; store at room temperature if pickup is later that day.
  • Prepaid pickup returns your kit to the lab; track arrival in your account for peace of mind.
  • Most steps take minutes and cause minimal discomfort.
Sample type Primary purpose Supplies included Ideal timing
Urine Detect common bacterial STIs Clean-catch cup, instructions Morning preferred
Finger-prick blood HIV, hepatitis, syphilis markers Lancets, collection card, alcohol wipe Any time; avoid heavy alcohol 24–48 hrs
Targeted swab Oral, genital, anal site screening Swab, tube, labeled bag As directed based on exposure

Pricing and coverage in India

We outline clear upfront fees so you can choose a panel that fits both need and budget.

pricing coverage

Transparent costs for comprehensive and targeted panels

Our price reflects the number of infections screened and the assay type. Targeted panels cover a few tests and cost less than full viral plus bacterial panels.

Comprehensive panels include HIV I & II, HBsAg, Anti-HCV, syphilis markers (VDRL, TPHA/TPAB), HSV-2 IgG/IgM, and Chlamydia antibodies. Partial results appear in 24–48 hours and full reports in seven days.

What influences price: infections screened, consultations, and treatment

  • Panel breadth: more markers raise the base cost.
  • Assay type: specialized assays for hepatitis and HIV affect fees.
  • Included services: kit, pickup, lab processing, and secure results are part of the fee.
  • Add-ons: confirmatory tests, clinician consultation, medication, or partner support can increase total cost.
Panel type Typical inclusions Turnaround
Targeted (bacterial) Chlamydia, Gonorrhea 24–48 hours (partial)
Comprehensive (viral + bacterial) HIV, hepatitis, syphilis, HSV 24–48h partial; 7 days full
With clinician bundle Full panel + consult + prescription support Same timelines; added follow-up

We keep pricing clear with no hidden fees so you can compare based on risk, planned follow-up, and partner care needs.

From results to treatment: complete care at home

When results arrive, our clinical team helps you turn data into a clear care plan. We guide you through interpretation and map out the next steps so you know what to expect.

Discuss results with our clinicians and plan next steps

We schedule a virtual consultation to discuss results and explain options. If you test positive, we review evidence-based treatment options and timing.

Important pre-test guidance

Before you collect any sample, a few simple steps reduce errors and improve result reliability.

Please note: avoid alcohol 24-48 hours before your blood test

Please note: avoid alcohol for 24–48 hours before your blood draw. Alcohol can alter lab markers and reduce sample quality.

Follow the written instructions for urine, finger-prick blood, and swab collection. Correct timing and hygiene cut contamination risk and speed accurate results.

Have a small snack and water before a finger-prick unless we tell you otherwise. Sit while collecting to lower dizziness risk.

  • If you take medication or have recent symptoms, list these details for your clinician during the consultation.
  • Very early after exposure, tests may not detect infection. Plan retesting according to window periods.
  • Contact our support team if any step is unclear—we help you collect correctly on the first attempt.
Action Why it matters Recommended time
Avoid alcohol Preserves blood marker accuracy 24–48 hours before collection
Follow instructions Reduces contamination of urine or swab Read before opening kit
Note meds & symptoms Helps clinical interpretation At sample submission
