I would like STI testing

Please click here to access the Public Health Wales Test and Post service to arrange a free home test kit. 

You can use this service to get a free test kit for Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea. You can also get a free kit that will test for HIV, Syphilis, Hepatitis B, and Hepatitis C.

Postal tests for peace of mind can test for chlamydia, gonorrhea, HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B and C. Postal tests do not test for the herpes simplex virus or HPV (genital warts).

An unmarked envelope will be sent to your chosen address. Negative results will be sent to you via text message. If you are found to have an infection, we will contact you to arrange treatment. 

If any of the tests indicate a sexually transmissible infection, you will be contacted by a clinician by phone to discuss the results and notifying partners. If we cannot reach you by phone, we will send a letter asking you to contact us. 

Please note this may take up to three weeks.  You may need to arrange a further appointment in order to receive treatment and arrange for your partner to attend.

Not sure when to test?

If you have no symptoms, then:

  • 2 weeks following sex to test for Chlamydia and Gonorrhea
  • 45 days following sex to test for HIV
  • 3 months following sex to test for Syphilis or Hepatitis

If you are under 18, we recommend attending one of our drop-in clinics.
