Common Questions

What is included in the Basic STD Screening Package?

The package includes four blood tests: HIV, HBsAg, Syphilis and HCV.

Does the package require fasting?

No. Fasting is not required.

Can I take this test without symptoms?

Yes. Some infections may not cause noticeable symptoms. Screening can help identify possible infections.

Can these infections be detected through a blood test?

Yes. Blood tests are commonly used to screen for HIV, Hepatitis B, Syphilis and Hepatitis C.

How soon after exposure should I take the test?

The detection window varies for each infection and test method. Testing too early may produce a negative result despite recent exposure. Your doctor may recommend repeat testing.

Can I have an infection without symptoms?

Yes. HIV, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C and Syphilis can sometimes remain unnoticed for a period of time.

Does a reactive screening result mean I definitely have an infection?

Not necessarily. Reactive screening results require appropriate confirmatory or follow-up testing according to the relevant testing guidelines.

Can Hepatitis B be detected through HBsAg alone?

HBsAg helps identify current Hepatitis B infection, but additional markers may be required to determine the infection status more fully.

Can HCV screening confirm an active Hepatitis C infection?

If the screening test is HCV antibody, a reactive result indicates previous exposure but does not confirm active infection. HCV RNA testing is required to confirm current infection.

Can HIV be treated?

HIV can be effectively controlled with antiretroviral therapy. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment help people live healthy lives.

Can Hepatitis C be cured?

Yes. Hepatitis C can be cured in most cases with appropriate antiviral treatment.
