At-home trichomoniasis testing
Trichomoniasis is the third infection reported by the Visby Women's Sexual Health Test. One self-collected swab covers all three, with a result you read at home in about 30 minutes.

How it works
- Self-collect a vaginal swab using the included swab.
- Insert it into the single-use device.
- Read the three results after about 30 minutes.
After a positive result
Contact a clinician for prescription treatment and let recent partners know. Treating both partners at once is what stops the infection bouncing back.
Limitations
- People with a vagina only; single use.
- A screening result, not a diagnosis or prescription.
- Does not cover HIV or syphilis.

Frequently asked questions
- Do I need a separate test for trichomoniasis?
- No. It is reported by the same device that covers chlamydia and gonorrhea from a single self-collected swab.
- What if the test is negative but symptoms continue?
- See a clinician. Bacterial vaginosis, yeast infections and other conditions cause similar symptoms.
Not sure which test you need?
Three questions, about a minute, and one clear recommendation. No account needed.
