Screening
This screening panel uses your blood and urine to allow for a convenient, confidential and trouble-free way to find out if you or your partner have been exposed to HIV or another sexually transmitted disease (STD). Just being exposed may not mean you have an active infection, but if you are infected you may not have any symptoms. So without symptoms you still are at risk of transmitting this disease to a sexual partner. Early detection can also prevent the development of serious medical problems. STD's are one of the most common causes of infertility in women.
• Chlamydia and Gonorrhea Test
• Hepatitis C Antibody
• HIV 1 Antibody
• Hep B, HSVI & II Igm, RPR
Special Notes:
