RPR is a nontreponemal blood test used in syphilis assessment and follow-up. It can react for reasons other than syphilis, so diagnosis normally requires interpretation with an appropriate treponemal test and the clinical history. It is different from a direct molecular test for Treponema pallidum.
This group contains the HIV and hepatitis screening components specifically named in the package. Antigen and antibody tests have different detection windows, so a negative result soon after exposure may require repeat testing. Reactive screening results may need additional confirmatory testing. These components do not replace the separate organism tests listed elsewhere in the panel.
Routine urinalysis examines physical, chemical and microscopic features of urine. The listed observations can provide clues about urinary tract inflammation, blood, protein, glucose and other findings. Microscopic observations and calculated report fields are not separate disease diagnoses. Results are interpreted with symptoms and specimen quality; urinalysis does not replace a urine culture when one is needed.

Ready when you are — your Sexual Infections 5 (STD-5)
Pick a date or start booking below — your Sexual Infections 5 (STD-5) is already loaded into your cart.
How to prepare
Do not urinate for at least one hour before your sample — first-catch urine carries the highest concentration of organisms, and a recently emptied bladder is the commonest cause of an unclear result. No fasting is needed. If you have taken antibiotics in the last four weeks, tell our team, as recent treatment can suppress detection.
Who should take this test
A focused first check covering the five most common sexually transmitted infections, for anyone after unprotected sex, a new partner, or wanting routine reassurance. Window periods matter: testing too soon after exposure can miss an early infection, so tell us the date and our team will advise whether to test now, later, or both. Having no symptoms is not evidence of having no infection.

Some infections never show up in a urine sample, no matter how sensitive the test. HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B circulate in the bloodstream rather than living in the genital tract, and the only way to find them is to look in the blood. This panel is built around that fact.
Why these particular infections need blood
Chlamydia and gonorrhoea sit in the lining of the urethra and cervix, so a urine sample carries enough shed material to identify them directly. The infections screened here behave differently. After transmission they spread through the bloodstream and establish themselves throughout the body, and a local sample would tell you nothing about them.
Blood testing therefore looks for one of two things: a protein the infection itself produces, or the antibodies your immune system raises in response to it. Both are indirect. They read your body's engagement with an infection rather than sampling the infection where it sits, and that is why timing matters so much.
The window period, and why one negative may not be enough
Antibodies take time to appear. A test taken a few days after a possible exposure can be genuinely negative and still be too early to rely on, simply because your body has not yet produced enough of them for the assay to register. The infections here do not follow the same schedule as one another either.
In practice this means a first test establishes a baseline and a repeat some weeks later confirms it. Mention it at the time of booking if you are testing after a particular incident rather than as part of a routine check. That does not alter the test itself, only the advice that comes with the result.
What this panel deliberately leaves out
This is a five-marker screen and it is worth being honest about its edges. It does not cover chlamydia, gonorrhoea, trichomonas or the genital mycoplasmas. Those are infections of the genital tract, found by molecular testing rather than by blood, and they are the most commonly diagnosed sexually transmitted infections there are.
So if you have symptoms such as discharge, burning or pelvic discomfort, or you want broad reassurance after unprotected sex, a molecular panel is the better starting point, and the larger panels in this range combine both approaches in a single visit. Choose this one when your concern is specifically the blood-borne infections, or when you want a clean baseline to build on.
The urine analysis that comes with it
Alongside the blood markers the panel includes a standard fourteen-parameter urine analysis. It is not a sexually transmitted infection test. It is a general look at the urine for protein, blood, glucose and the signs of a urinary tract infection, and its value here is incidental: it occasionally surfaces something unrelated worth following up, such as early kidney strain or an unexpected sugar reading.
Reactive is not the same as confirmed
Screening tests are deliberately set to catch as much as possible, which means a small number of reactive results turn out not to be infections. A reactive syphilis screen in particular can be triggered by several unrelated conditions, and is always followed by a second, more specific test before anything is concluded.
You are not left to work any of that out yourself. Results come back in 48 hours, a doctor reviews them before release, and anything reactive is explained to you directly, with confirmatory testing and treatment arranged from there.
