Gonorrhoea tests in Hajnówka

Gonorrhoea is one of the most common STIs in Hajnówka.  It can cause considerable damage to your health and fertility if it is not detected and treated quickly.  Gonorrhoea can be passed on by vaginal, oral and/ or anal sex.

The Gonorrhoea test at our Better2Know sexual health clinic in Hajnówka is a simple, urine test used to detect the presence of the infection in your genitals, or a self-collected swab of your mouth/ throat or anus.

What are the most common STIs in Hajnówka?

The most common intimate infections in Hajnówka include:

• Hepatitis C

• Chlamydia

• Gonorrhoea

• Syphilis

A study published in the National Library of Medicine found that reported cases of STIs in Poland showed that the infections were present but not being detected as most people were not getting tested regularly. 

Better2Know makes getting tested in Hajnówka quick and easy for men and women.  The only way to know if you have a venereal disease is to get tested.

Can I get an STI if I did not have sex?

Yes, it is possible to contract an STI without sexual intercourse. While sexual intercourse is the most common transmission method, some STIs can be contracted through non-sexual means. Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, Herpes and Syphilis are all high risk for being passed on through oral and anal sex.  HIV is high risk for being passed on through anal sex.

Herpes and the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) can be spread through skin-to-skin contact.  This means that any contact with a blister or sore can pass on the virus. HIV, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C can be contracted through any blood-to-blood contact, this includes sex, sharing needles, syringes, or other drug-injection equipment, needle stick injuries, through tears in the skin, or from mother to child during childbirth.

It is vital to understand that while sexual activity increases the risk of contracting an STI, abstaining from intercourse does not completely eliminate the risk. Regular STI testing with Better2Know in Hajnówka is recommended regardless of your sexual activity to ensure optimal sexual health.

Chlamydia test in Hajnówka

Chlamydia is one of the most common STDs in Hajnówka.  Over 50% of men and 75% of women will not have any symptoms of a Chlamydia infection, making it a silent yet significant threat to your health.

Regular Chlamydia testing is important for sexually active men and women in Hajnówka.  Early detection can prevent severe health complications such as infertility, ectopic pregnancy, and pelvic inflammatory disease [PID] in women and reduced fertility and pain during urination or sex for men.

You can have a Chlamydia infection in your genitals, throat and rectum.  Each of these locations has a different test.  A urine test will detect Chlamydia in your genital area (for both men and women), but will not find an infection in your mouth if you have given oral sex to someone with Chlamydia.

In Hajnówka, Better2Know offers confidential, fast, and reliable Chlamydia testing services. Remember, getting tested is not only about individual health but also about protecting others and reducing the spread of STIs in your community.
