Why STI Testing is Important
STIs (sexually transmitted infections) can affect anyone who is sexually active. Many infections do not present immediate symptoms, making regular testing essential for early detection and treatment. Left untreated, STIs can lead to serious health complications, including infertility, organ damage, and increased vulnerability to other infections. Routine testing helps protect your health and prevents the spread of infections to others.

Q&A: STI Testing at TALC
- Is STI testing painful?
Most STI tests are quick and painless. Blood tests may involve a small needle prick, and swab tests may cause mild discomfort but are typically over in seconds.
- How long do STI results take?
Depending on the test, results can be available in as little as 20 minutes (for rapid HIV tests) or up to a week for more comprehensive screenings.
- Will my results be confidential?
Yes. Your privacy is our top priority. All results are confidential and shared only with you.
- What if I test positive for an STI?
If your results indicate an STI, our clinicians will guide you through treatment options, provide prescriptions if needed, and offer ongoing support. We ensure you have the resources to manage and treat your condition effectively.
5. Can I get tested if I don’t have symptoms?
Absolutely. Many STIs are asymptomatic, meaning regular testing is important even if you feel healthy.
