A urine test for chlamydia and gonorrhoea in the genital and urinary tract, for anyone who wants to check for infection with or without symptoms.
2 biomarkers as listed by Better2Know.
Chlamydia and gonorrhoea commonly infect the urethra, vagina or penis, and can often be present without symptoms. This test looks for the genetic material of both bacteria in a urine sample, making it suitable for genital infection specifically rather than infection in the throat or rectum.
Priced at £145, this sits level with Better2Know's rectal swab, throat swab and plain chlamydia and gonorrhoea test, all covering the same two markers. Better2Know's own Chlamydia Gonorrhoea (Urine) Home Test Kit tests the identical markers for £45 using a sample you collect and post yourself, and its Throat and Vaginal Swab home kits are also £45 each. Outside Better2Know, LloydsPharmacy Online Doctor's combined kit costs £27.99 and Forth's Basic STI Home Test Kit costs £42.
The test scores at the top of the range for clinical depth, matching the two-marker median for its comparison group, and very well for collection convenience, since it offers a clinic visit, a home nurse visit, and a cheaper home-kit alternative. value for money sits mid-range against the £145 comparison-group median, though well above the home-kit options. It scores lowest on results and follow-up, since Better2Know does not review your result with a doctor as standard. Better2Know is CQC registered, holds a 4.2 Trustpilot score from 775 reviews, and has traded since 2008.
This test suits you if you want to check for a genital chlamydia or gonorrhoea infection, whether or not you have symptoms such as discharge or discomfort urinating, and you would like the option of a clinician-guided appointment or a nurse visiting you at home. Better2Know suggests testing straight away with symptoms, or waiting 14 days after exposure if you have none.
If cost matters more than having a nurse or clinician present, Better2Know's own £45 Urine Home Test Kit or Forth's £42 kit test for the same two markers. If you are also concerned about throat or rectal infection, you will need Better2Know's throat swab or rectal swab as well.
You provide a urine sample at a Better2Know clinic or during a home nurse visit, which is sent to the laboratory the same day. The sample is analysed for chlamydia and gonorrhoea, with results typically available within two working days through Better2Know's secure online patient area. Results are not reviewed by a doctor as standard, though Better2Know says it can help arrange treatment if you test positive.
This urine test checks for chlamydia and gonorrhoea in the genital and urinary tract, taken at a clinic or during a home nurse visit, with results within two working days. At £145 it matches Better2Know's other clinic-based chlamydia and gonorrhoea tests, while a £45 home kit version of the same urine test is sold separately. Throat or rectal infection needs a different swab.
