STI screening can involve:
- Taking a history to assess what tests need to be carried out
- An examination of the genital area, and possibly other parts of the body, for signs of infection
- Taking of samples such as urine and blood for laboratory tests
- In most cases a swab from the penis is no longer necessary
Results are usually available in a week.
Prescriptions / treatments are issued by the doctor for most infections detected.
STI testing is carried out by a doctor by appointment. Morning, afternoon and evening appointments are available.
A full screen costs €100 and takes approximately 20 minutes.
