Is it true that some STIs have no symptoms?
Yes. Often STIs do not present any symptoms such as itching, soreness when urinating or during sex, flu-like symptoms, or unusual discharge. Symptoms, if they do appear, can vary between different people and different STIs. Some common STI infections such as Chlamydia can present no symptoms at all. Around 90% of men and 70% of women who are infected with Chlamydia will never show any symptoms.
Because of this, it is important that you test regularly for STIs in Kirkcaldy. Regular testing at your local Better2Know clinic in Kirkcaldy will provide you with the health information you need to keep yourself, and your sexual partners safe from symptomless STIs.
STIs such as Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, HIV, Syphilis, Herpes, Hepatitis A, B and C, Mycoplasma, and Trichomonas are just a few common STIs that can present with no symptoms in the early stages of infection. No matter where you are, even in Kirkcaldy, the risk of catching one of these infections is high. Regular testing is the only way to protect your sexual health.

What samples do I need to provide for my STD test?
At Better2Know we understand that not everyone is comfortable with having their blood taken or providing an intimate swab. We have designed our online sexual health booking system so that you can filter the tests available by the sample needed. Depending on the test or screen that you choose, a blood, urine or swab sample will be taken. For some screens, a combination of these samples will be necessary.
When you arrive at your Better2Know sexual health clinic in Kirkcaldy, your blood samples will be taken by one of our trained and experienced healthcare professionals, they will also give you instructions on how to collect a urine sample and any swabs that are needed for your chosen tests.
