What it is for

  • Male Sexual Health

    Why people check it

    Sexually transmitted infections are common, and not only in young people: anyone who is sexually active can get one. Many men have no symptoms at first, so testing is how people check. Left alone, these infections can cause serious health problems, including infertility.
