Private NGU and NSU Testing in London

Non-Gonococcal Urethritis (NGU) and Non-Specific Urethritis (NSU) affect many people and often cause worry. They are conditions that cause inflammation of the urethra, not resulting from gonorrhoea, a common sexually transmitted infection. NGU and NSU can occur from various causes, such as infection or irritation, and in some cases, the exact cause remains unknown. Understanding these conditions is essential and the first step in ensuring your well-being and sexual health.

When is NGU and NSU testing needed?

If you experience symptoms such as unusual discharge, discomfort in the urethra, or burning sensation while urinating, consider testing. Testing is also necessary if you had unprotected sex with or believe you were recently exposed to an STI. Early detection is necessary for effective treatment and preventing possible complications.

Why is testing important?

Undergoing NGU and NSU testing is important for your sexual health and peace of mind. If left untreated, these conditions can cause more serious complications, such as chronic pain and infertility. Testing also helps prevent spreading of the infection to your sex partner. We emphasise that regular testing is important and a necessary sexual health responsibility.
