At-home chlamydia testing
The Visby Women's Sexual Health Test runs a self-collected vaginal swab in a single-use device at home, reporting chlamydia, gonorrhea and trichomoniasis in about 30 minutes.

How it works
- Self-collect a vaginal swab using the included collection swab.
- Insert it into the single-use device and start the run.
- Read all three results after about 30 minutes.
Who it is for
People with a vagina only, and each device is single use. We do not currently carry an instant at-home chlamydia test for people with a penis — a clinician-ordered urine test is the route for that anatomy.
After the result
- Positive: contact a clinician for antibiotics and notify recent partners.
- Negative: retest or seek care if symptoms continue or the exposure was very recent.
- Invalid: the device did not run, so there is no result to interpret.

- Self-collected vaginal swabs are an established sample type for this kind of testing when the instructions are followed exactly.
- Can I reuse the device?
- No. The device is single use and tests one sample only.
