Chlamydia Testing in Moga

Chlamydia is one of the most common STIs in Moga.  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 Moga 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 Moga.

What STIs should I get tested for?

If you do not know what specific infections to test for, Better2Know’s medical team recommends the Full STI Screen.  Our doctors have put this screen together for men and women to test for the most common and most important STIs. You can book it online at our private Moga sexual health clinic nearest you.

You should wait 28 days since any incident of concern before you have this test.  We just need a blood and urine sample.  The screen tests for:

• HIV

• Syphilis

• Chlamydia

• Gonorrhoea

• Hepatitis B

• Hepatitis C

• Urine Culture

If you have not yet waited 28 days.  Do not worry, we have other tests for you to choose from.  Our Early Screens start from an incubation period of just 10 days.  Our friendly booking team are available now to help you to choose the right test for you in Moga.

Is it true that some STIs have no symptoms?

Yes. Often STIs do not present any symptoms such as itching, soreness when urinating or during sex, flu-like symptoms, or unusual discharge. Symptoms, if they do appear, can vary between different people and different STIs. Some common STI infections such as Chlamydia can present no symptoms at all. Around 90% of men and 70% of women who are infected with Chlamydia will never show any symptoms. 

Because of this, it is important that you test regularly for STIs in Moga. Regular testing at your local Better2Know clinic in Moga will provide you with the health information you need to keep yourself, and your sexual partners safe from symptomless STIs.

STIs such as Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, HIV, Syphilis, Herpes, Hepatitis A, B and C are just a few common STIs that can present with no symptoms in the early stages of infection. No matter where you are, even in Moga, the risk of catching one of these infections is high.  Regular testing is the only way to protect your sexual health.

HIV testing in Moga

Both men and women are at risk of HIV in Moga.  If you have had sex with a new male or female partner, then we suggest that you include an HIV test in your screen.  This is because it is important to detect HIV early so that you can begin treatment.  These days, most people with HIV will lead a normal length of life providing they start treatment early and take their medication regularly.

Our advanced blood tests can detect HIV in a small blood sample from just 10 days after any potential infection.  This is the earliest HIV test possible in Moga.  HIV is also included in many of our STI screens.  It is always important to know your HIV status so that you can protect your own health and not pass the infection on.

If you are concerned about having HIV, call our helpline today to speak to our Sexual Health Advisors.  They will be happy to help you to book your HIV test.
