home tests for STD's

[tallslenderguy]

Anyone else ever use a home test for STD's?  I have done the online purchase where you go to a lab, but i have noticed there are now tests available that you can do at home and mail in. What i haven't seen is tests that cater to the gay population? I'd like to test more frequently for gonnorhea and chlamydia since they are so common, but that would involve an anal and oral swab and the home tests i have seen test urine. I guess if you get the test for a woman (vaginal swab?) that could be used, but i don't know how site specific the tests are. Ideally, would want to test urethral, anal and oral each time. Anyone have experience using home tests available for those?

ok, after some searching i found this test... the one reviewer gave it a bad review, but the company has good ratings elsewhere. It is really expensive but it does cover all the bases, wondering if there are other companies that offer the same?

I've used MyLabBox a couple times and sometimes it takes longer than 3-5 days to get results it's still the best at home kit I've found. If you test positive for they will prescribe whatever treatment is needed or refer you out if it's HIV.

Thanks bgr,

So far, that's the most comprehensive test i have found, i need a lot more than just a urinalysis to be really tested. Was curious about what they do with gonnorhea since it requires both azithromycin (pills) and a shot of rocephin (i think).  Test's in UK seem cheaper, something like 31 pounds for a single test that is $69 here. Even with the exchange difference, i think it's still cheaper in Europe... not surprised, or healthcare system is for profit.

Yeah I really have no need for urine tests since I'm 100% bottom. As for treatment they'll call in Suprax and Azithromycin.
