About Testing

We can test for a full range of sexually transmitted infections, including chlamydia, gonorrhea, HIV/AIDS, syphilis, mycoplasma, ureaplasma, as well as candida and trichomonas.

If you have any questions about the tests, our staff with expertise in STIs will be happy to guide you to the appropriate tests, so please feel free to ask.

Yes. Our clinic provides testing, diagnosis, and treatment for these major sexually transmitted infections.

• Shinjuku Clinic: 03-5337-6611
• Tokyo Clinic: 03-5255-6611

• Regular test: Results can be checked online in 2–3 days.
• Same day testing: Results come in about 20 minutes to 1 hour—recommended for those who want results the same day.

Note: Some same day testing may be slightly less accurate compared to regular tests.

• For men planning a urine test: please avoid urination until your visit.
• For women doing a vaginal discharge test: do not wash inside the vagina.

There are no restrictions on eating or drinking otherwise.

If you have taken antibiotics within the past week, it may affect tests for chlamydia, gonorrhea, mycoplasma, ureaplasma, etc. Please inform us in advance.

• Regular tests for chlamydia and gonorrhea can be performed during your period without any problems.
• Same-day chlamydia and gonorrhea tests, as well as vaginal discharge tests (for candida, trichomonas, and general bacteria), may be affected by menstrual blood and could result in less accurate results.

If you have symptoms, we recommend visiting the clinic even during your period. Please consult with us first.

Yes. Please let us know in advance if you have a history of syphilis.
For those with a past syphilis infection, we will guide you to the regular test (TP / RPR) rather than the same day testing.
The same day syphilis test only checks TP antibodies. If you have had syphilis before, TP antibodies may remain positive even after being cured, so that test cannot determine current infection in such cases.
If you wish to confirm post-treatment or cure, please ask our staff. We can guide you to a different testing method.

The “blood draw” is performed by qualified medical staff.
Self collection applies to urine (men), vaginal swab (women), or oral rinse. All of these are simple to collect, so no worries.
If a woman is uneasy collecting a vaginal swab by herself, a doctor can do it upon request.

We can draw blood while you are lying down. Please inform staff if you are anxious. The amount of blood required depends on the test items, but it is typically less than the amount used in standard health checkups.

Yes. The needle, holder, alcohol swab, bandage, gloves, etc., are all brand new and disposable. There is absolutely no risk of infection from the blood draw.

• Regular testing: about 2–3 days (for some tests up to 1 week)
• Same day testing: about 20 minutes to 1 hour

Durig the wait time for same day testing, you may leave the clinic.

• Regular testing: You can check your results online. At the time of payment, we will provide you with a “Test Card” with a QR code. Please use the information on the card to log in.
• Same-day tests: Results are provided directly at the clinic. If you wish, you can also view them online—please feel free to request this.

Yes, a printed report can be issued once the results are available. Please inform the staff when you would like one.
(An additional fee of 110 yen, tax included, will apply.)

We will arrange a doctor’s consultation and provide necessary treatment.

• For same day testing: diagnosis & treatment may be done the same day
• For regular tests: please visit the clinic as soon as possible after checking your results online
