SEXUAL HEALTH BLOOD TEST

STI and general sexual health checks for your and your partner's safety.

FAST, ACCURATE AND TRUSTED RESULTS

Taking care of your sexual health is a vital part of your overall wellbeing. Regular testing gives you peace of mind and ensures that any infections are identified early and treated promptly. At One Day Tests, we provide fast and confidential sexual health blood testing that fits around your schedule.

Whether you need a routine check or are experiencing symptoms, our range of blood tests covers the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs). You can choose to test from home or visit one of our UK clinics for a professional blood draw.

WHAT IS A SEXUAL HEALTH BLOOD TEST

A sexual health blood test checks for infections that can be transmitted through sexual contact. These tests identify antibodies, antigens, or genetic material linked to infections such as HIV, syphilis, and hepatitis.

Testing is simple and reliable. A small blood sample is analysed in a UKAS-accredited laboratory to determine if any infections are present. Early detection allows for effective treatment and helps protect both your health and that of your partner.

Our sexual health tests are suitable for anyone who is sexually active or concerned about potential exposure. They can also provide reassurance before entering a new relationship or following unprotected sex.

WHY TAKE A SEXUAL HEALTH BLOOD TEST

Many sexually transmitted infections do not cause symptoms immediately. Some may remain undetected for months or even years, increasing the risk of complications or transmission.

You may wish to take a sexual health blood test if you:

  • Have had unprotected sex
  • Are starting a new relationship
  • Experience symptoms such as unusual discharge, pain, or rashes
  • Have been informed that a partner has an infection
  • Simply want reassurance and peace of mind

Regular testing is recommended if you are sexually active, particularly with new or multiple partners. Early diagnosis helps ensure quick treatment and prevents further spread.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR RESULTS AND NEXT STEPS

Your results will indicate whether any infections have been detected. If your test is positive, early diagnosis means that treatment can begin promptly to manage the condition effectively. Many STIs can be treated and cleared completely with medication.

If you test negative, your results provide reassurance. It is still important to continue regular testing, especially if you have new sexual partners.

Our tests are laboratory-reviewed for clinical accuracy, and your results are presented clearly so you can discuss them with a GP or sexual health specialist if needed.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What blood tests are done for sexual health?

Sexual health blood tests commonly check for HIV, syphilis, and hepatitis B and C. These infections are detected through specific antibodies or antigens in your blood.

What blood test can detect STDs?

Blood tests can detect several sexually transmitted infections, including HIV, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and syphilis. Some infections, such as chlamydia and gonorrhoea, require urine or swab tests instead of blood tests.

What STDs can't be detected by blood tests?

Not all sexually transmitted infections can be detected through blood tests. Chlamydia, gonorrhoea, and trichomoniasis are usually diagnosed through urine or swab samples. Blood tests are mainly used for viral and bacterial infections that affect the bloodstream.

How do I test my sexual health?

You can test your sexual health through a combination of blood, urine, and swab tests. You can order tests online or visit a clinic for professional sample collection. Testing regularly helps you stay informed and in control of your health.
