When an asymptomatic patient presents to you for a sexual health checkup, consider testing for the following:

  • Chlamydia - for all sexually active people <30 years as well as anyone who identified themselves at risk
  • Hepatitis B, HIV and syphilis - for people who are from a high risk population group
  • Gonorrhoea - for all sexually active people <30 years as well as anyone who identified themselves at risk 

Refer to our testing guidelines for details about the tests recommended.
