Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the at-home rectal chlamydia and gonorrhoea test?

Our At-Home Rectal Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea Test Kit uses the Aptima multisite swab system for highly accurate results. In clinical studies, Aptima swabs demonstrate over 95% sensitivity and specificity. However, no test is 100% accurate. If you have symptoms or a high risk of exposure, please contact a healthcare professional regardless of your result.

How do I use the self-collected Aptima multisite swab kit?

1. Wash your hands thoroughly. 2. Read the included instructions carefully. 3. Insert the Aptima swab about 2–3 cm into the rectum and rotate gently for 10–15 seconds. 4. Place the swab into the transport tube, seal it, and mail it back using the prepaid envelope. Full step-by-step guidance is provided in the kit.

When will I get my results and how are they delivered?

You will receive your results via secure email within 3–5 days of the lab receiving your sample. If your result is positive, our GP team will be in touch to discuss next steps and treatment options (additional fees may apply).

Is the at-home sexual health test safe and confidential?

Yes. The test kit is fully CE-marked and uses the same laboratory processes as in-clinic tests. Your privacy is protected: samples are identified by a unique code, and no personal details are shared with the laboratory.

Can I get treatment through Mayfield Clinic if I test positive?

If your test is positive for chlamydia or gonorrhoea, you’ll be offered a GP consultation (in person or via video) to discuss prescriptions and partner notification. Treatment plans start from £50. Our team will guide you through every step.
