myLAB Box At-Home Herpes Test Kit

If you are sexually active, it’s important to get tested for STDs, including genital herpes, on a regular basis to protect your sexual health. The Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) is a sexually transmitted infection that is categorized by two types of viruses: herpes simplex type 1 (HSV-1, or oral herpes) and herpes simplex type 2 (HSV-2, or genital herpes). This kit tests for genital herpes, or HSV-2, which is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections (STI) in the United States. One in six people in the United States between the ages of fourteen and forty-nine have genital herpes. You can contract this infection through oral, anal or vaginal sex. Often there are no visible signs or symptoms to alert you of this infection’s presence. In addition to regular screenings, it’s in your best interest to get tested if you believe you have been exposed to herpes or if you have had unprotected sex. This kit enables you to test safely from the privacy of your own home. Free telemedicine and treatment (as determined medically appropriate) is available for positives.

Who Should Use a Herpes Test Kit?
If you are sexually active, it’s important to get tested for STDs, including genital herpes, on a regular basis to protect your sexual health.

When Should You Take an At-Home Herpes Test?
Timing is everything when it comes to taking an at-home herpes test. This is because STDs are not immediately detectable in your system, so if you test too soon after exposure, your results may not be accurate.

Most people begin to experience their first outbreak within 4 days following the initial exposure, but the incubation period for genital herpes ranges from 2 to 12 days. This means herpes may not be detectable for up to 12 days after you are exposed to it. As a result, you should not take an STD test within the first 2 to 12 days following the initial exposure. If you test negative within the first 2 to 12 days, it’s best to retest after two weeks has passed to confirm your results.
