STI Test Kit - Sexual Health 101
The STI Test Kit provides a convenient and confidential way to test for common sexually transmitted infections, including Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, HIV, and Syphilis. Unlike most BODYiQ tests, this product includes a physical self-collection kit that is shipped to you.
What’s included in your kit
- Materials and instructions to self-collect urine and swab samples for Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea
- A pre-paid blood test form for HIV and Syphilis, to take to any Awanui Labs collection centre
- Packaging to return your samples by post or in person
Please note
- You must present the physical blood test form included in your kit. Your BODYiQ order number or QR code alone will not be accepted.
- All samples are processed by Awanui Labs’ IANZ-accredited laboratory network across New Zealand.
- This kit does not use a finger-prick method for HIV testing.
