STI and STD Testing in Bahrain

Better2Know provides private STI and STD testing services across Bahrain, including the capital city of Manama. The sexual health screens and tests we offer in Bahrain are conducted in line with the highest international standards of quality and care. Better2Know’s private STI clinics are situated throughout Manama including Zinj, Bu Ghazal and Umm al Hassam.

Better2Know’s sexual health advisors are highly trained to ensure your patient journey is as stress-free and efficient as possible. You will receive fast and accurate testing for a range of sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

The analysis of your test is performed at Better2Know’s fully certified, central laboratory. We have same day or next day availability seven days a week in Manama, so your advisor can arrange a private appointment to suit your schedule.

Symptoms of an STI Infection

Undiagnosed and unmanaged STIs can result in health complications that require long-term supervision. Some STIs, such as Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea, can be symptomless in the early stages, making detection all the more difficult. If left untreated, these infections can lead to more severe health complications.

STI symptoms can include:

• Pain or burning when urinating
• Unusual discharge
• Itching, redness or swelling in or around the genital or rectal area
• Abnormal bleeding in between periods, in urine, or after intercourse
• Blemishes such as sores, cuts, warts, lumps or any other breaks in the continuation of skin
• An intense need to urinate more frequently.

Not all STIs show signs of infection so it is essential to regularly receive STI testing, especially if you have any doubts about your sexual health.

The Better2Know Patient Journey

Your patient journey begins when you contact Better2Know. From the moment you book an appointment to your private sample collection and the receipt of your results, Better2Know are here to provide support and guidance.

Our private STI testing services will give you a comprehensive view of your sexual health. You can choose to combine any of our individual tests to create a more extensive STI screen. Better2Know’s selection of screens comprise highly accurate testing for HIV, Chlamydia, Gonorrhoea, Herpes I/II, Syphilis, Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, HPV, Mycoplasma, Trichomonas and Ureaplasma. For more information on Better2Know’s range of screening options, visit our STI Screens page.

Once you have arrived at your private appointment in Bahrain, you will be seen by a qualified clinician who will take your samples and send them to our highly accredited, central laboratory for analysis. Results should be available no later than five working days after our laboratory has received your samples. You may receive your results even earlier depending on your selected test or screen.

You will be given access to Better2Know’s secure, online Patient Area, where you can view your results at your convenience. Unless you request otherwise, Better2Know’s experienced Patient Services team will also contact you once all your results are ready to report.

Private doctor’s consultations can be arranged either before your STI test or after you have received your results. If you test positive for an STI, Better2Know’s Patient Services Executives will make the necessary arrangements for you to receive the treatment you need. You may take your results to your own doctor or sexual healthcare provider, if you prefer.

Bahrain’s Sexual Health Legislation

The sexual health legislation in Bahrain can be complex, and Better2Know’s private STI testing services are performed in line with the national laws. As such, you may be required to provide personal identification at your appointment.
