FAQs
Is a swab required for testing?
Patients frequently ask if swabs are required for testing. Swab testing is not only uncomfortable, but also can be embarrassing. Our tests do not require a swab or any other type of visual examination. All that is needed is a simple urine and blood sample.
What does “sensitivity” mean? What does “specificity” mean?
Sensitivity and specificity are different and complementary measures to inform doctors and patients about the accuracy of a test. A good test has both high sensitivity and high specificity.
Sensitivity is a measure of how well a test is able to detect people who are infected (positive cases). If a person has an infection, a test with 100% sensitivity can accurately detect it wit ha positive result.
Specificity is a measure of how well a test can detect people who are NOT infected (negative cases). If a person does not have an infection, a test with 100% specificity can accurately detect it with a negative result.
How accurate are my test results?
All of the tests we offer are FDA approved and performed in CLIA certified labs to ensure the highest level of accuracy. Some STDs require that you wait a period of time after sexual contact before getting tested. Each disease has a different latency period, so understanding when to test is important. If you have questions, our care counselors are happy to walk you through the process, start to finish.
When should I get tested again?
The frequency with which people should get tested depends on your sexual activity and the specific STD/STI. As recommended by the CDC, HIV testing is recommended at least once for people between the ages of 13 and 64. Women should be tested every year for chlamydia and gonorrhea if they are 25 years old or younger and should continue testing if they have new, multiple or high-risk sexual partners. The CDC recommends specific testing for pregnant women and sexually active gay or bisexual men such as HIV and syphilis testing. Finally, HIV tested should be a yearly priority for individuals who use unsafe or shared needles.
