Chlamydia Screening and Treatment

Chlamydia Screening Service

About Chlamydia

Chlamydia is the most commonly diagnosed sexually transmitted infection in the UK in men and women under the age of 25. The infection often does not present any symptoms, which is why regular testing is so important.

Why Regular Testing Matters

It is recommended that everyone under the age of 25 should be tested every 12 months or when changing sexual partners, as chlamydia often has no symptoms.

Our Free Chlamydia Testing Service

We offer free home chlamydia testing kits. It's a simple and discreet service - the pharmacy will not be informed of your results, ensuring complete privacy.

Treatment

If you test positive for chlamydia, it's important that your current sexual partner and any other recent sexual partners you've had are also tested and treated. Chlamydia can usually be effectively treated with antibiotics.

High Success Rate

More than 95% of people will be cured if they take their antibiotics correctly. You shouldn't have sex until both you and your partner(s) have completed treatment.

Privacy and Confidentiality

Your privacy is our priority. The testing process is completely confidential, and results are sent directly to you. Our pharmacy team will not be informed of your test results, ensuring complete discretion.
