Sexual Health Testing in Riyadh

Better2Know has private STI clinics across Saudi Arabia, including the capital city of Riyadh. Located in the districts of Al Masif and Al Rayan, our clinics offer various testing options for a wide range of sexually transmitted infections. These include HIV, Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, Syphilis, Herpes I/II and many more.

If you are worried about your sexual health, it is important to get tested. Many sexually transmitted infections show little or no symptoms, particularly in the early stages. However, when symptoms are present, they can include:

• Unusual discharge
• Pain upon urination
• Itching, redness, rashes, swelling or pain around genital or rectal area
• Visual blemishes (ulcers, lesions, bumps, sores, warts, spots)
• Blood in urine (or in between periods for women)
• Pain during or following intercourse
• A need to urinate more regularly.

Early detection and treatment are key to preventing further health problems that can arise from an untreated infection. It is important to get tested as soon as possible to protect your own health and that of any current or future partners.

Choosing your STI Test

Better2Know’s most thorough testing option is the Platinum Screen. Available in all our Riyadh clinics, the Platinum Screen will test you for eleven harmful STIs, ensuring a comprehensive examination of your sexual health. This screen requires a 28-day period of incubation, which is the time between your last sexual encounter and your STI test.

Our Early Platinum Screen identifies the same infections at half the incubation period, which means you can get tested just two weeks after an incident of concern.

Better2Know’s selection of screens and tests in Saudi Arabia are designed to suit your personal requirements. If you are unsure which testing option to choose, our friendly Patient Services team will suggest the confidential screen or test that meets your needs.

STI Testing and Results

Your private appointment will be arranged for a time and date that suits you. Once you have arrived at Better2Know’s private sexual health clinic in Riyadh, you will be seen by a qualified nurse or clinician who will go through the testing process. They will then collect the required samples and send them to our certified, central laboratory for swift and accurate analysis.

Results will be available no later than five working days from the receipt of your samples at our lab. Unless you request otherwise, you will be contacted by a Better2Know advisor once they are all ready to report. Some STI test results may be available even earlier, and you can keep track of them via our secure Patient Area online. Your advisor will send your patient login details once they have confirmed your booking.

Our sexual health advisory team can arrange a private doctor’s consultation for those who test positive for an STI. Your Better2Know doctor will discuss your diagnosis in more detail and prescribe the medication you require, if necessary.

For reactive blood tests, Better2Know will perform confirmatory testing at no extra cost. If you are positive for a blood-borne STI, such as HIV or Syphilis, your advisor will refer you to a specialist who can provide further advice and treatment options.

Better2Know’s private services in Riyadh comply strictly with the sexual health legislation in Saudi Arabia. This means you may be expected to present a form of personal identification at your appointment.
