How it works
questhealth.com offers 100+ consumer-initiated Quest Diagnostics lab tests to empower you to have more control over your health journey. Choose from a variety of test types that best suit your needs.
It is not always possible to know if you have an STI/STD because many people do not have symptoms. Here are some of the most common symptoms:
- Burning with urination
- Increased urinary frequency
- Itching or irritation of the vagina or penis
- Discharge from the vagina or penis
- Lower abdominal pain
- Pain during sexual intercourse
- Unusual vaginal bleeding
- Pain in the scrotum or penis
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) makes the following STD screening recommendations, even in the absence of symptoms:
Chlamydia and Gonorrhea
- Sexually active teenage girls and women (<25 years old)
- Sexually active women (≥ 25 years old) who have sex with more than one partner and do not use condoms
- Sexually active gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (MSM)
- Men and women who are infected with HIV
Hepatitis B
- Pregnant women
Hepatitis C
- Pregnant women
- Sexually active gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (MSM) if living with HIV
Syphilis
- Pregnant women
- Sexually active gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (MSM)
- Men and women who are infected with HIV
HIV 1 & 2:
- Sexually active men and women (including teenagers)
- Pregnant women
- Sexually active gay, bisexual and other men who have sex with men (MSM)
According to the CDC, by following step-by-step collection instructions, patients can collect their own samples correctly, and the results of the tests are as accurate as when they are collected by a doctor.12
The Quest Patient Service Representative (PSR) will provide you with a vaginal collection kit that comes in a sealed, protective wrapper and includes a step-by-step collection instruction sheet.
Read all instructions before starting to collect a sample. Failure to follow the instructions could affect the test results. If you have questions prior to performing your self-collection, you may ask the PSR or call 1.833.700.2423. The concierge line is open Monday-Friday 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM EST. It is closed on weekends and holidays.
If you accidentally drop the swab or collection tube (or contaminate them in any way), inform the PSR, who will dispose of them and provide new ones. If you are unable to self-collect, please contact your doctor. The collection cannot be done by the PSR.
