STD testing is highly recommended for anyone sexually active, even if they only have one partner. People should regularly go tested for STDs to protect themselves, their partners, and future generations. Every year, around 12,000 people in Hong Kong contract sexually transmitted diseases through sexual contact; however, with sexually transmitted diseases, symptoms are often not evident at first or may even display no symptoms.
STD tests in Hong Kong mainly includes HIV, herpes, and syphilis testing, among others. Which STD examination center is good? What checkup items are required? This article makes comparisons and recommends different STD screening plans.
For more information regarding the various healthcare centres’ packages:
Introduction to STD Examination Plans
Most STD examination plans will target several common STDs, including, but not limited to, syphilis (Spirulina syphilis antibody, syphilis serum test), gonorrhea (gonococcal DNA test), genital herpes (herpes virus type 2 antibody, herpes simplex virus type 1/2) Genetic testing), chlamydia (chlamydia antibody, chlamydia DNA), human papillomavirus (HPV) (human papillomavirus DNA genotyping), and AIDS (HIV antibody 1&2 and p24 antigen). In addition, there are also tests for trichomoniasis, Gardnerella vaginalis, and Candida for women that can be performed by cervical Pap smear.
The sensitivity of general STD testing is limited, which may lead to missed testing. Compared with inoculum detection, the DNA venereal disease test has a higher sensitivity and can be detected with a very small number of pathogens, which helps to know the result earlier. Compared with antigen and antibody detection, DNA STD testing has higher sensitivity and accuracy, and the time required for the clinic to perform a rapid STD check is also faster.
Details of STD Screening Plans
STD testing can generally be divided into three categories: men's testing, women's testing, and comprehensive testing. The following is a selection of STD testing packages for you, including the comparison of STD testing costs and items, so that you can make a choice.
