PRIVATE HPV TESTING IN LONDON

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a group of viruses. Some types cause genital warts, while high-risk types are linked to cervical and other cancers.

When do you need a test?

Test if you notice warts or as part of routine cervical screening (women). Men can also be tested if they have concerns.

Why is it important?

Identifying high-risk HPV allows for closer monitoring of cell changes to prevent cancer.

Clinical Guidance: Most bacterial STIs are detected within 1-2 weeks of exposure. HIV testing is most accurate after 28 days, though our 4th generation tests can provide early detection from 10 days post-exposure.

If you are experiencing symptoms, we strongly recommend our Gold or Platinum packages for the most comprehensive evaluation and immediate treatment initiation.
