HIV is a serious sexually transmitted infection.  Better2Know tests for HIV at all of our Neiva clinics.  You can get tested without having to use your real name.  If you are worried about anyone knowing you have been tested, we will not know who you are, and will keep your results confidential.

Chlamydia tests in Neiva

Chlamydia is one of the most common STIs in the world.  Most men and women with a Chlamydia infection do not have any symptoms.  Especially in the first few weeks and months of infection.  Our Neiva clinic tests men and women for Chlamydia with a simple urine sample.

If you have had unprotected sex with a new partner, you should have a test for Chlamydia.  You should not wait for Chlamydia symptoms to appear to get tested.

What is a sexually transmitted infection?

A sexually transmitted infection (STI), sometimes called a sexually transmitted disease (STD), is an infection that is most often passed from one person to another during sex.  This can include skin, blood, semen, or bodily fluid contact. 

HIV is passed on by blood-to-blood contact which can occur during penetrative sex, or the sharing of needles.  Herpes is passed on by skin to skin contact and can be passed on whether or not penetration occurred.

You do not need to have vaginal or anal sex to have an STI.  STIs can be passed on during oral sex, kissing and mutual masturbation.

STIs usually do not have symptoms in the first few weeks of a new infection, which is why they are easy to pass on.  You can book your appointment today by calling our 24/7 Neiva helpline. You can also book online using the map on this page to find a sexual health clinic near you.

How do I know if I have an STD?

Our doctors say that you cannot diagnose an STD on symptoms alone.  The only way to know if you have an STD is to get tested. 

Most men and women do not experience any symptoms when they contract an infection. Some people can go months or even years and not show many, or any, outward symptoms. That is why it is important to get tested often, especially if you are sexually active or have had sex with a new partner.

When they do occur, common STD symptoms include:

  • Unusual discharge from the vagina, penis, or anus

  • Painful urination

  • Pain during sexual intercourse

  • Blemishes, such as sores, blisters, bumps, or rashes that appear on the genitals, rectum, or mouth

  • Itching around the genital area

  • Pain in the abdomen

  • Flu-like symptoms, including fever and headaches

  • Unusual weight loss

  • In women: unusual vaginal bleeding, particularly after sex

If left unaddressed, STDs can result in severe health complications including infertility, Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, certain types of cancer, and a compromised immune system.

If you have concerns about your sexual health, take the initiative to get tested today at a Better2Know clinic in Neiva. Booking your appointment is easy.  Please click on the sexual health clinic nearest you on the provided map and book your appointment online now.

Which STI tests or screens does Better2Know have?

  • Comfort Screen: Tailored for individuals experiencing pain, itching, or unusual discharge from the genital area. This screen uses a single urine sample to test for Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, Herpes I/II, Mycoplasma, Ureaplasma, Gardnerella, and Trichomonas.

  • Peace of Mind Screen: Ideal for those seeking early detection of three of Neiva’s most prevalent STDs: Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, and Syphilis.  You only need to wait 14 days after the sex that you are concerned about to have this screen.

For personalised guidance on your STI testing options, reach out to our Neiva helpline to connect with one of our knowledgeable Sexual Health Advisors.

How can I prevent STIs in Neiva?

The only way to not have an STI in Neiva is to not have sex.  Condoms, femidoms and dental dams can help to prevent STIs spreading, but they will not work all the time.  Sometimes bodily fluids are exchanged before the condom (or other barrier method) is put on (or in) and sometimes they may break, or not be used properly.

Having only one sexual partner at a time and regular STI testing in Neiva can help to stop infections spreading.  If you do test positive, you should let your sexual partners know so that they can also get tested and treated.

If you are worried that your condom did not work, or it has been over three to six months since your last STI test, you should get tested.

The earlier you get diagnosed; the sooner you can get treated. Call our Neiva helpline to book an STI screen at a sexual health clinic near you.
