Chlamydia Home Test Information
Chlamydia is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in the UK. Many people experience no symptoms, which means infections can go unnoticed without testing. Home Chlamydia tests provide a discreet and convenient way to screen for infection without visiting a clinic.
When should you test for Chlamydia?
You may consider testing if:
-
You’ve had unprotected sex with a new or multiple partners
-
You or your partner have symptoms such as discomfort or unusual discharge
-
You are carrying out routine sexual health screening
-
A partner has tested positive
Testing is usually recommended 7–14 days after potential exposure.
How home Chlamydia tests work
