What Does the Comprehensive STD Panel Test For?
- The package provides broader screening by combining different laboratory methods rather than relying on a single type of STD test.
- It includes testing related to HIV, syphilis, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, herpes, CMV, chlamydia, gonorrhoea, Ureaplasma, Mycoplasma, and Trichomonas.
- The urine PCR component specifically detects genetic material from seven selected pathogens, making the STD Plus Package a more extensive option than standard screening alone.
Who Should Consider the STD Plus Package?
- The package may be considered if you want broader STD screening, have concerns following possible sexual exposure, have symptoms that require investigation, or have been advised to undergo more extensive sexual health testing.
- It may also be suitable when you specifically need PCR testing for infections such as chlamydia, gonorrhoea, Mycoplasma, Ureaplasma, or Trichomonas.
- Because different infections have different window periods, contact Al Safa Lab on 01030903637 before testing if you are unsure whether enough time has passed since a possible exposure.
