So something new I learned and sharing with the gm's here, while you might come out clean with the std screening tests.. it's a good idea to still get urine cultures incase of any other bacterial infections that aren't std's but can be transmitted through sex.(e.coli)
-
Yes, though you'd need to get it reco'd by ur physician and provider before you can get the test. At least that's my experience with maxicare for other tests. I tend to do it out of pocket for std tests.
-
Update for everyone, price is now 3000 for ct/ng which is still good. Which brings the total package 18 with the optional ct/ng to 5.2k Overall package is now comparable to loveyourself's 5 in 1 premium std package test(4.5k) and might be even better since hi precision uses the more modern ag/ab hiv test along with cbc and urinalysis.

Check loveyourself

Ah, this is 3rd gen antibody only.
-
Pwede padin sir, herpes/syphillis/HPV can still infect you due to the nature of how they're passed. Iwas nalang din sa oral sex and french kissing para reduced risk.
-
Do we know if the HIV test they're using is 3rd gen ab(antibody only) or 4th gen ag/ab(antigen/antibody)?
-
I suggest looking into prep at the very least for those who prefer doing it live.. at least you'll have one less std to worry about.
-
Nice, thanks for sharing sir!
-
Might be best to simply inquire with them boss or call them. Please do share once u get the info, I'm curious din. Thanks!
-
As long as it's a reputable clinic/hospital you should be fine. Of course we have our own biases, with mine being hi-precision.. other gm's have pointed out myhealth and loveyourself.
-
For everyone's reference
-
It's hard to tell sir, it can be mucus thread, high bacteria, high wbc.. but it can also be all in the normal range but you'd still be infected.. it's not a reliable method for knowing 100% if you have either of those infections as other factors can come into play. It would be best to simply test specifically for those infections instead.
-
This is the same as hi precision's std screening package 18.. and myhealth is a little bit more expensive with their red package.
-
That's good to know, I might try this moving forward as a more practical option over hi precision. Thanks!
