Frequently asked

Do you test for all STI's?

Yoxly offers four test kits to test for the 8 most common STIs.

What is an incubation period?

An incubation period refers to the amount of time between exposure to an STI and when symptoms first develop.

Different STIs have different incubation periods. For example, a person may develop symptoms 4 days after being exposed to gonorrhoea. After being exposed to syphilis, however, a person may take 3 weeks to develop symptoms.

It is important to remember that not all people infected with an STI develop symptoms. This means that they may unknowingly have an STI, and pass it on to others.

A window period refers to the amount of time between exposure to an STI and when a test can accurately detect the infection.

Different STIs have different window periods. For example, gonorrhoea can be accurately detected 2 weeks after exposure, while syphilis can be accurately detected 12 weeks after exposure.

Even for the same STI, the incubation period and the window period is often different. For example, after exposure to gonorrhoea a person may develop symptoms in 4 days, but it will take a test 2 weeks to accurately detect gonorrhoea infection.

Considering each STI’s window period, Yoxly advises the following for at-home STI tests:

Chlamydia: Takes up to 2 weeks from the time of exposure to show up positive in tests. They recommend that you wait 2 weeks from the time of exposure to test for chlamydia.

Gonorrhoea: Takes up to 2 weeks from the time of exposure to show up positive in tests. They recommend that you wait 2 weeks from the time of exposure to test for gonorrhoea.

Trichomoniasis (Trichomonas vaginalis): Takes up to 3 weeks from the time of exposure to show up positive in tests. They recommend that you wait 2 weeks from the time of exposure to test for trichomoniasis.

Mycoplasma genitalium: Mycoplasma genitalium takes up to 3 weeks from the time of exposure to show up positive in tests. They recommend that you wait 3 weeks from the time of exposure to test for mycoplasma genitalium.

Syphilis: Syphilis takes 4 - 12 weeks from the time of exposure to show up positive in tests. If in doubt, they recommend that you test 4 weeks from the time of exposure to syphilis, and then again at 12 weeks.

Herpes Simplex Virus ("HSV") I & II: HSV takes up to 12 weeks from the time of exposure to show up positive in tests. They recommend that you wait 12 weeks from the time of exposure to test for HSV.

Human Immunodeficiency Virus ("HIV"): HIV takes up to 4 weeks from the time of exposure to show up positive in tests. If it’s within 72 hours of potential exposure to HIV, they recommend you seek immediate medical attention at A&E or a GUM clinic. If it's more than 72 hours after potential exposure to HIV, or if in doubt, they recommend that you wait 30 days from the time of exposure to test for HIV, with a repeat test at 45 days.

Hepatitis B Virus ("HBV"): HBV takes 4 - 12 weeks from the time of exposure to show up positive in tests. If it's within 7 days of potential exposure to hepatitis B, they recommend you seek immediate medical attention at A&E or a GUM clinic. If it’s more than 7 days after potential exposure, or if in doubt, they recommend that you test 4 weeks from the time of exposure to HBV, and then again at 12 weeks.

Hepatitis C Virus ("HCV"): HCV takes up to 12 weeks from the time of exposure to show up positive in tests. They recommend that you wait 12 weeks from the time of exposure to test for HCV.
