About this test

For broader STI testing in one visit, this panel checks for seven infections using a urine sample and a blood draw: chlamydia, gonorrhea, trichomoniasis, syphilis, HIV, hepatitis B, and hepatitis C. Many of these can cause no symptoms. Hold your urine for 1 hour before your visit.

For adults 18 and older. Test availability varies by lab location.

Who should take this test?

For adults who want broader STI testing in one visit, such as with a new partner or more than one recent partner, whether or not they have any symptoms.

What does this test measure?

You get a result for each of the seven infections checked, from your urine and blood samples, giving you and a healthcare provider a starting point for any next steps.

Infections

Chlamydia
Chlamydia is a common bacterial infection that can pass through sexual contact. It often causes no symptoms, which is why it is commonly checked as routine screening. In this panel it is checked from your urine sample. A urine sample does not check for infection of the throat or rectum.
Why it’s measured: Chlamydia often has no symptoms, so it is a common routine screen.
Gonorrhea
Gonorrhea is a bacterial infection that can pass through sexual contact. It can cause no symptoms, especially in women, and it is often checked together with chlamydia. In this panel it is checked from your urine sample, which does not check for infection of the throat or rectum.
Why it’s measured: Gonorrhea can cause no symptoms and is often checked together with chlamydia.
Trichomoniasis
Trichomoniasis is a common sexually transmitted infection caused by a parasite, and a healthcare provider can treat it. Many people who have it notice no symptoms. It is checked from a sample collected at your visit, and a provider reads the result with your history and any symptoms.
Why it’s measured: A common sexually transmitted infection that often causes no symptoms.
Syphilis
Syphilis is a bacterial infection that can pass through sexual contact and can cause no symptoms for long periods. It is checked here from your blood sample. Some syphilis antibodies can stay after past treatment, so a reactive result is read with your history and may need more testing.
Why it’s measured: Syphilis can go unnoticed, so blood screening is a common check.
HIV
HIV is a virus that affects the immune system and can cause no symptoms for years. It is checked here from your blood sample. A very recent infection may not show up yet, so a clinician can advise on when to retest. A positive screening result needs follow-up testing before it is interpreted.
Why it’s measured: HIV can cause no symptoms for years, so routine testing is common.
Hepatitis B
Hepatitis B is a virus that affects the liver and can spread through blood and sex. Many people who have it notice no symptoms. It is checked here from your blood sample. Different hepatitis B tests answer different questions, so a provider reads your result with your history.
Why it’s measured: A liver virus that can cause no symptoms, read by a provider with your history.
Hepatitis C
Hepatitis C is a virus that affects the liver and spreads mainly through blood. Many people who have it notice no symptoms. It is checked here from your blood sample. A provider reads your result with your history and can explain whether any follow-up testing is needed.
Why it’s measured: A liver virus that often causes no symptoms, so a blood test is a common check.

Questions

Common questions.

Anything else, our care team answers by phone, text, or email.

Hepatitis B and C are viruses that affect the liver. Both can spread through blood. Hepatitis B often spreads through sex, and hepatitis C can too, though less often. Many people with either virus have no symptoms, so a blood test is a common way to check. A healthcare provider can explain what a result means for you.

Timing matters. Infections can take time to show up on a test, so a very recent infection may not appear yet. A clinician can advise when to test and when to retest. If you have symptoms, see a healthcare provider promptly rather than waiting for a test.

It does not check for herpes or HPV, and a urine sample does not cover infections of the throat or rectum. A negative result reflects your samples on the day of testing, not infections too recent to show up. A clinician can advise whether other tests make sense for you.

Talk with a healthcare provider about any positive result and next steps, including whether partners should be tested. A positive screening result may need a follow-⁠up test. Some positive results are reported to public health authorities, as state law requires.

Some positive results are reported to public health authorities as required by state law. Talk with a healthcare provider about any positive result.
