An at-home urine test that checks for chlamydia and gonorrhoea in the genital and urinary tract, suited to men and women who suspect infection but don't need a throat or rectal swab.
2 biomarkers as listed by Better2Know.
This test uses a urine sample to check for chlamydia and gonorrhoea, the two most common bacterial STIs in the UK, in the urethra, vagina or penis. It suits men and women with symptoms, or without symptoms who have waited the recommended 14 days after a risky encounter before testing, and is not intended for suspected throat or rectal infections, which Better2Know offers as separate swab kits.
At £45 it matches the price of Better2Know's own throat and vaginal-swab kits and comes in well below the £145 charged for the in-person clinic version. LloydsPharmacy's combined chlamydia and gonorrhoea kit undercuts it at £27.99, and Forth's basic STI kit is £42, so it is competitively but not exceptionally priced within its group.
The listing scores well for clarity, price and convenience, with a clear two-day turnaround from an at-home sample. It scores lower for results and follow-up, since routine doctor review of your result is not confirmed as standard, only a consultation if you test positive.
This suits you if you have symptoms of chlamydia or gonorrhoea, or have waited the 14-day incubation period after a risky encounter and want a private urine test you can do at home. It is not the right choice if you are specifically concerned about a throat or rectal infection, since those need a swab test instead. If you have symptoms now, it is worth testing promptly and considering a GP visit as well.
If price matters most, LloydsPharmacy's combined kit is cheaper at £27.99. If you would rather have your sample taken at a clinic, Better2Know also offers an in-person version, though it costs considerably more at £145.
You collect a urine sample yourself at home following the instructions in the kit, then post it to the lab. Results are typically ready within two days of the lab receiving your sample, and Better2Know will contact you by phone, email or text, with full results available in your online patient area. If you test positive, a Better2Know doctor can help you access treatment.
This urine-based kit tests for chlamydia and gonorrhoea for £45, the same price as Better2Know's throat and vaginal-swab versions and much less than the £145 in-clinic test. LloydsPharmacy's equivalent kit is cheaper at £27.99. Turnaround is normally within two days once the lab has your sample.
