We believe in transparent pricing.
If additional tests are clinically indicated after consultation, our doctor will explain the reason and cost before proceeding.
Most results are available within:
2–3 working days
Some results may be available earlier, while certain tests such as Pap smear or specialised laboratory investigations may require additional time.
Your results will be sent through WhatsApp in soft copy format.
After receiving your results, you may come to our clinic for complimentary result explanation.
We encourage patients to understand their results properly, especially if any abnormal findings are detected.
Some clinics include HSV-1 IgG testing, but it is not routinely recommended for general STD screening.
HSV-1 infection is very common worldwide, and many people acquire it during childhood without symptoms. A positive HSV-1 IgG result only indicates previous exposure and the presence of antibodies — it does not confirm:
Including HSV-1 IgG in routine screening may create unnecessary anxiety.
HSV-1 testing may be considered in specific situations, such as:
Chlamydia IgG antibody testing is not recommended for diagnosing active genital Chlamydia infection.
A positive Chlamydia IgG result may indicate:
It cannot confirm whether a patient currently has an infection.
For accurate diagnosis of active Chlamydia infection, Chlamydia trachomatis PCR (NAAT) is the preferred and most accurate diagnostic test.
Depending on your symptoms, exposure history, and sexual practices, samples can be taken from:
The doctor will recommend the appropriate sample site based on your situation.
Ideally, first void urine is preferred according to standard guidelines, especially for urine-based STI testing.
However, we understand that many patients have work and scheduling limitations.
Our laboratory has strict quality control measures. If the urine sample does not contain sufficient cellular material for accurate testing, the laboratory will flag the sample.
In most situations, non-first-void urine samples are still acceptable and provide reliable results.
No appointment is required.
You may walk in during clinic operating hours.
No fasting is required for STD screening.
You only need to fast if you are combining the STD screening with certain health screening tests that require fasting blood tests.
Yes.
Our doctors provide assessment and treatment for various sexually transmitted infections, including:
Treatment will be based on your symptoms, examination findings, and test results.
Your privacy is our priority.
Your test results will not be shared with anyone without your consent, including your partner or family members.
However, under Malaysian public health regulations, certain infections such as:
may require mandatory notification to the relevant health authorities.
This notification is required for public health monitoring, disease statistics, and ensuring appropriate medical follow-up and treatment.
The suitable package depends on your symptoms and risk level.
Consider:
Suitable for individuals who want screening after possible exposure or as a routine sexual health check.
Consider:
Recommended if you have:
The Symptomatic STD Profile is usually more suitable because vaginal discharge may be caused by:
For couples planning marriage, the Comprehensive STD Profile is recommended.
It provides a broader assessment to help couples understand their sexual health status before marriage and future family planning.
Yes, but the timing of testing is important.
Different STDs have different window periods, meaning the time required after exposure before a test can reliably detect an infection.
Some infections can be detected earlier, while others may require repeat testing after a certain period.
If you had a recent exposure, our doctor can advise:
Yes
Many sexually transmitted infections can exist without obvious symptoms.
A person may look completely healthy but still carry an infection and unknowingly transmit it to their partner.
This is why screening is important, especially when:
Pre-marriage STD screening is recommended for couples who want reassurance and better understanding of their sexual health status before marriage.
We recommend the Comprehensive STD Profile for pre-marriage screening because it provides a wider assessment of common sexually transmitted infections.
Early detection allows appropriate treatment, prevents transmission, and helps couples plan their future with confidence.
Yes
Many STIs can be present without obvious symptoms, especially in the early stages.
Screening is recommended if you:
No single test detects every possible infection.
Our packages are designed based on medically recommended tests for common and clinically significant STIs.
Additional testing may be recommended depending on:
Our doctors will guide you on the most appropriate testing strategy.
At CarePlus Clinic, our STD screening approach focuses on clinically meaningful and evidence-based testing.
We believe that more tests do not always mean better testing. Unnecessary tests can sometimes create confusion, anxiety, and additional costs without improving patient care.
Our approach:
✅ Gold-standard testing methods
We select tests based on current medical evidence and use reliable diagnostic methods, such as PCR/NAAT testing for infections like Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea.
✅ Avoid unnecessary tests
We do not routinely include tests that may only detect previous exposure or antibodies without confirming an active infection, as these may cause unnecessary worry.
✅ Comprehensive testing at an affordable price
We aim to provide a broader and more complete STD assessment while maintaining reasonable pricing.
For example:
Some clinics only test for high-risk HPV types. At CarePlus Clinic, when HPV testing is indicated, we assess both:
This provides a more complete understanding of HPV status.
Our goal is not simply to offer more tests, but to provide the right tests that give meaningful information for your health decision-making.
