Why people test for chlamydia

Chlamydia is one of the most commonly diagnosed sexually transmitted infections in the UK, and many people who have it notice no symptoms at all. That is why testing after a new or casual partner is often suggested even when you feel well.

This kit looks specifically for Chlamydia trachomatis. It does not test for gonorrhoea, HIV, syphilis or any other infection — if you want to check for those as well, each needs its own kit.

Collecting the swab: female and male directions

Collection directions differ depending on anatomy. Follow only the set that applies to you.

Female

  • Insert the supplied swab into the vagina about 1–1.5 cm.
  • Rotate it several times.
  • Remove it carefully.

Male

  • Do not urinate for at least 2 hours beforehand.
  • Insert the supplied swab into the urethra about 2–4 cm.
  • Rotate it several times, then remove it carefully.

Preparing and running the test

The chlamydia kit uses two buffers, added in order:

  1. 01

    Buffer A

    Place the swab in the extraction tube, add 8 drops of Buffer A (blue tip), squeeze and rotate the swab 15 times, then leave for 2 minutes.

  2. 02

    Buffer B

    Add 8 drops of Buffer B (purple tip), squeeze and rotate 15 times again, then leave for 1 minute before removing the swab.

  3. 03

    Add to the cassette

    Attach the dropper tip, add 3 drops to the well marked S and start your timer.

Things that can affect a chlamydia result

  • Too little sample on the swab can give a false negative — collect carefully.
  • Leaving the swab longer than 1 hour before testing.
  • Reading the cassette after 20 minutes.
  • A negative result only covers the sample site you swabbed.
