STD/STI Plus detection test in Santander

A person may be infected with one of these sexually transmitted microorganisms without showing symptoms, which makes detection crucial in order to treat infections, prevent transmission, and avoid complications. Through the screening test using a urine sample, three of the most important STIs can be identified.

This test includes a blood analysis (by means of a PCR test) to detect antibodies against the main pathogens:

• HIV: detection of antibodies against the HIV virus and the P24 antigen.
• HCV: detection of antibodies against the hepatitis C virus (HCV).
• HBV: detection of antibodies and surface antigens of the hepatitis B virus (HBV).

The procedure also includes a urine analysis to detect antibodies against the main pathogens responsible for these infections:

• Chlamydia trachomatis – causes chlamydia.
• Neisseria gonorrhoeae – responsible for gonorrhea.
• Mycoplasma genitalium – associated with urethritis and cervicitis.
• Mycoplasma hominis – may be involved in urogenital tract infections.
• Ureaplasma urealyticum – linked to urethritis and other genital infections.
• Ureaplasma parvum – another type of ureaplasma with clinical relevance.
• Trichomonas vaginalis – parasite responsible for trichomoniasis.

Likewise, the ETS Plus Test includes the detection of the human papillomavirus (HPV) through the analysis of a urine sample, with the aim of identifying the presence of DNA corresponding to HPV variants considered high risk for the development of cervical cancer.

The screening test allows for the direct detection of the DNA of these microorganisms, even when symptoms have not yet developed or before the body has generated an immune response.

This test should be performed at least 3 or 4 weeks after having had a risky sexual encounter or when there is suspicion of exposure to an STI.
