7 in 1Results in 3 daysThe 7 STIs/STDs behind ulcers and blisters
Sample: Urine
Have you got ulcers or painful blisters in the genital area? It's more common than you think. Genital ulcers can hurt, itch or cause no symptoms at all, and maybe it's also hard to pee. This test looks for seven sexually transmitted infections (STIs/STDs) that could be behind it: herpes 1 and 2 (type 1 shows up more on the lips and type 2 more on the genitals), syphilis, chancroid, chlamydia LGV, shingles and cytomegalovirus. It uses PCR: it doesn't wait for your body's reaction, it looks for the genetic material of the germ itself. That's why it's more relevant than the antigen tests most clinics usually order. Because it's so sensitive, it can find these infections even at the very start or when there's very little of the germ, so you can get treated sooner and lower the risk of passing them on. It also tells one germ from another, which makes the diagnosis more precise and avoids unnecessary treatment.

- Treponema pallidum: This is the bacteria behind syphilis. It usually starts with a single firm, round sore that doesn't hurt. The sore goes away on its own, but the infection continues if it isn't treated.
- Haemophilus ducreyi: Causes chancroid: one or more very painful genital ulcers with irregular edges, often with swollen lymph nodes in the groin.
- Herpes Virus 1 (HSV1): Causes genital or oral herpes: small clusters of blisters with a lot of pain, burning or itching. When they break, they leave shallow ulcers and scabs, sometimes with fever and feeling unwell.
- Herpes Virus 2 (HSV2): Causes genital or oral herpes: small clusters of blisters with a lot of pain, burning or itching. When they break, they leave shallow ulcers and scabs, sometimes with fever and feeling unwell.
- Varicela Zoster Virus (VZV): Causes shingles. It's less common in the genital area, but it can cause painful blisters along a line on the skin of the lower back or groin.
- Clamidia trachomatis LGV (Linfogranuloma venereo): Causes lymphogranuloma venereum: a small, short-lived ulcer that barely hurts, and weeks later, a strong and painful swelling of the lymph nodes in the groin.
- Citomegalovirus (CMV): It usually causes no symptoms in healthy people, or something like mononucleosis, with fever and tiredness. With a weak immune system, it can cause ulcers that don't go away.
