Online testing and booking
Please note that our online booking service has been temporarily suspended.
We apologies for any inconvenience resulting from this decision.
Although we encourage individuals to have a full STI screen, there may be instances where you only require a limited screen.
As part of our service, Sexual Health Services Nottingham & Nottinghamshire offer a screen for genital gonorrhoea and chlamydia, as well as syphilis and HIV infection.
This screen is suitable if you are asymptomatic, that is you do not have any symptoms suggestive of an infection (such as discharge, pain passing urine, rashes, lumps, bumps or pain in the abdomen or testes).
Additionally, the MiSSTI service is only suitable if you:
- are over 18 years of age
- have not been in sexual contact with a person known to have an STI,
- are not pregnant (females only);
- have not been sexually assaulted.
It is NOT for patients requiring contraception advice or treatment.
By making an online booking for an asymptomatic screen, you are confirming that you fit the above criteria.
Should you attend and this not be the case, then you will be required to make an alternative appointment by calling 0300 131 7010.
Postal kits
Postal kits are also available if you are asymptomatic.
These postal kits screen for genital gonorrhoea and chlamydia, as well as syphilis and HIV infection.
Patients with a Nottinghamshire postcode can access free postal chlamydia, gonorrhoea, HIV or syphilis testing kits free of charge by visiting the Sexual Health website (external link).
If you request a test, please remember to return it.
The vast majority of people take their own blood sample with minimal difficulties but some do struggle, so we suggest watching the Finger-Prick Blood Test Self-Sampling Guide (external link) video for tips on how to best do this.
