If you have a lump, wart, blister, rash or other blemish in your genital area, this is the screen for you

You want fast, accurate results to treat the blemish swiftly

This screen will take a swab of your blemish, wart, blister or lesion to see if it is the result of one of the STIs we test for.

What does the Blemish Screen test for?

The Blemish Screen tests for:

Syphilis
Herpes I/II (Current Infection)
HPV (Genital Warts)

These are the most common sexually transmitted caused by warts, bumps, and blisters in the genital region. You can choose to include other STIs with this screen at our reduced, bolt-on price.

What will happen at my appointment?

Your clinician will welcome you to your private appointment and collect your swab samples. They will need to collect two swab samples of the affected area. These will then be sent to our accredited laboratory to see if your blemish is caused by a Syphilis orHerpes infection.

How will I get my results?

Your results will be available in our secure, online area as soon as they are returned by the laboratory and have been reviewed by our results team. Results are uploaded to the patient area 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We will also contact you by email or SMS once all your results are ready. If you prefer, a member of our sexual health advisory team will also call you to discuss your results in detail.
