As of World Aids Day 2021, we at Insync Medical, as a private non government subsidised sexual health clinic have pledged to make STD screening affordable and accessible to all. Sometimes we have sexual misadventures and sometime we have unintentionally passed a STD on to sexual partner and then sometimes even with due precaution taken through the use of condoms we contract a STD. We should not have to be punished with costly STD screening. We bring to you reasonable and complete STD screening options in our private and discreet space with an opportunity of time during a consult to clarify all questions you might have.
Most common STD symptoms
Penis owners might experience burning sensation with urination, discharge from the penis opening, pelvic or testicular pain.
Vulva owners might experience increased vaginal discharge or foul smelling discharge abnormal menstrual bleeding particularly prolonged bleeding or bleeding after sex and mid cycle.
Other symptoms might include new ulceration or blisters on the genital skin, rash particular over the palms and soles of feet.
If you have such symptoms, it is imperative that you get tested and treated for STDs as soon as possible. There is no need to wait for specific window periods for testing as you are already symptomatic.

FAQ
Why should we screen for STDs?
If untreated, STDs can cause a whole host of severe health problems, which is why it’s crucial to be tested regularly. Do you only get tested for STDs when you have a new partner?
Unfortunately, due to the stigma around STIs and STDs, many go untreated for a long time due to a delay in diagnosis, which can lead to infertility problems, cancer, blindness and organ damage.
