Who should take the test?

Gonorrhea is known as a widespread infection. Therefore, it is important to get tested if there is suspicion or as a preventive measure.

Gonorrhea can cause infections in the genitals, rectum, and throat. Without treatment, the bacteria can continue to spread in the genital organs and cause inflammation of the epididymis or prostate, which can then lead to lower abdominal pain and swelling of the testicles. Consequently, these inflammations can lead to infertility. An untreated gonorrhea infection can increase the risk of HIV infection.

Our Gonorrhea Test for Men is suitable for any man who is sexually active and wants to have an overview of his sexual health. Since many sexually transmitted diseases do not show symptoms, early detection and treatment are important to avoid long-term damage.

How does it work?

Once your order has been processed, you will be sent a sample collection kit. You collect your sample from the comfort of your own home and send it back to us. We analyze your sample and send your results via secure email with a password protected PDF file.

What guidance will I get along with my results?

Following the completion of the analysis, you will receive a lab report that includes explanations for the analyzed markers and details on potential symptoms linked to imbalances. Additionally, we strongly advise that you discuss the results you receive from us with your healthcare provider or practitioner.

Moreover, you can find more information on our website, particularly in the various test categories under “health conditions” and FAQs. If you still have questions, feel free to reach out to us via email at contact@verisana.co.uk.

How is my privacy protected?

Samples for our tests are collected in the privacy of your own home. Both we and our partner laboratories (which may be contracted by us to conduct some or all analyses of your test) take customer privacy very seriously. You will be the sole person with access to this information, and we guarantee that we will not disclose your information to any unauthorized third parties. Additionally, all samples will be disposed of after analysis.
