What STIs can I be tested for in Plewiska?
At Better2Know’s Plewiska STI clinics, we offer comprehensive testing for a wide range of Venereal Diseases and Intimate Infections. These are infections that are passed from one person to another, often through sexual contact.
STIs can lead to severe health problems for you and your future partners if they are left untreated. If you have sex with new partners it is important to get tested every 3 to 6 months. Below is a list of STIs we test for at our Plewiska clinics:
Chlamydia
Gonorrhoea
Syphilis
Herpes
HIV
HPV/ Genital Warts
Hepatitis A
Hepatitis B
Hepatitis C
Trichomonas
Mycoplasma
Ureaplasma
The earlier STIs and intimate infections are found by testing at our Plewiska clinics, the sooner you can start treatment and prevent health and fertility complications.
If you are concerned about more than one STI, our comprehensive STI screens will test for several STIs at once. If you are not sure what to test for, please choose our Full Screen.
What are the most common STIs in Plewiska?
The most common intimate infections in Plewiska 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 Plewiska quick and easy for men and women. The only way to know if you have a venereal disease is to get tested.
What is the difference between a test and a screen?
An STI test is for when a patient is concerned about one infection. For example, if you have had unprotected sexual intercourse with a partner who later informs you that they have Chlamydia, you would want to get a Chlamydia test.
An STI screen is recommended by the Better2Know Plewiska medical team. A screen involves checking for several different STIs simultaneously. Screens are best used when an individual has had sex with a new partner and wants to get peace of mind by having a more comprehensive look at their sexual health.
Regular STI testing and screening is an essential part of maintaining good sexual health and preventing the spread of sexually transmitted infections in Plewiska.
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 Plewiska is recommended regardless of your sexual activity to ensure optimal sexual health.
When should I get tested for an STI in Plewiska?
All Venereal Diseases have an incubation period. This is the time it takes for an infection to be detectable in your body from the time that you might have caught it.
If you are worried about a specific incident in Plewiska, then the incubation period varies between 10 and 28 days depending on the infection and test method. You can book your STI Test appointment in advance. Please choose a date on or after the incubation period.
If you are having a regular check-up, then the incubation period is less important. Your results will be accurate for partners up to and before the incubation period of your tests or screens.
If you think you may have been exposed to an STI, or you have any symptoms, you should get tested.
