Why Complete STI Testing Matters
Did you know that many STls show no symptoms? Regular
testing is the only way to know your status for certain.
The Essential 7 STI Test Kit from examine me provides
laboratory-grade testing for all major STIs without the
need to visit a clinic.
Our unique dual-collection approach combines both urine
and PCR swab samples to ensure nothing is missed.
Different infections can colonize different areas of the body,
which is why testing with both methods provides the most
comprehensive results.
Who should get tested?
All testing is conducted in our UKAS-accredited UK laboratory (ISO 15189),
the same facilities trusted by NHS sexual health services.
Starting a new relationship
Multiple partners in the past year
Unprotected sexual contact
Symptoms that concern you
Peace of mind for regular health monitoring
Why Choose the Essential 7 STI Test Kit
Unlike most home testing kits that rely on just one sample type, our Essential 7 kit combines both urine and PCR swab collection. This dual approach ensures maximum detection accuracy across all infection sites – especially important for infections that may not show up reliably in a single sample type.
One kit tests for all major STIs:
- Chlamydia trachomatis
- Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Gonorrhea)
- Mycoplasma genitalium
- Trichomonas vaginalis
- Herpes Simplex I & II
- Ureaplasma species
- Gardnerella vaginalis
Why choose separate tests when you can screen for everything at once?
We use Nucleic Acid Amplification Testing (NAAT) – the gold standard in STI detection with 99.9% accuracy. PCR testing can detect infections even in their earliest stages when other testing methods
might miss them.
Every sample is processed in our UK-accredited laboratory using identical methods to NH5 sexual health clinics. Our testing procedures are regularly audited and maintained to the highest standards (ISO 15189).
Digital results delivered to your secure online account within 48 hours of sample receipt. Our system uses 256-bit encryption, the same security level used by major banks.

Why Both Urine AND Swab Testing Matters
Different STIs colonize different areas of the body. Some are better detected in urine, while others are more accurately identified via swab. Our dual-collection approach ensures you don't miss infections that might be overlooked with single-sample testing.
NHS sexual health clinics typically use both collection methods because the combined approach provides the most comprehensive and accurate results. By choosing our dual-collection home test, you're getting the same clinical standard without the clinic visit.
| Infection | Best Detection Method | Why Both Matter |
|---|---|---|
| Chlamydia | Both effective | Different strains may prefer different sites |
| Gonorrhea | Both effective | Can colonize various areas |
| Mycoplasma | PCR swab often better | May be missed in urine alone |
| Trichomoniasis | PCR swab often better | Higher detection rates with both |
| Herpes I & II | PCR swab primarily | Swab essential for accurate results |
| Ureaplasma | Both effective | Comprehensive detection |
| Gardnerella | PCR swab primarily | May be missed in urine alone |
