What STIs can I be tested for in Szydłowiec?

At Better2Know’s Szydłowiec 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 Szydłowiec 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 Szydłowiec 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.

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 Szydłowiec is recommended regardless of your sexual activity to ensure optimal sexual health.

When should I get tested for an STI in Szydłowiec?

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 Szydłowiec, 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.
