• There are many infections that can be transmitted through sexual contact, including chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis, herpes, human papillomavirus (HPV), hepatitis B and C, and HIV.
• These infections can be spread through vaginal, anal, or oral sex, as well as through sharing needles or other injection equipment.
• Symptoms of sexually transmitted infections can vary, but may include genital discharge, pain or burning during urination, sores or bumps on the genitals, and flu-like symptoms.
• Some infections can be cured with antibiotics, while others may be managed but not cured. In some cases, infections may not cause noticeable symptoms but can still be passed on to others.
• The best way to protect yourself from sexually transmitted infections is to use barrier methods of contraception, such as condoms or dental dams, and to get tested regularly if you are sexually active.

It’s important to consult a Doctor on Call or by visiting the Clinic and get to know about the best testing options for you based on your risk factors and symptoms. Regular testing is important for detecting STIs early and preventing the spread of infection to others.

How do I get a STD/HIV test in Dubai?

There are various tests available to diagnose different types of sexually transmitted infections (STI test). A home sample collection is the best for it. At Nightingale, our Doctor and DHA registered nurse can visit you (at your Home or Hotel) and do the required sample collection and the results are emailed to you. Also, you can avail a Doctor’s consultation (Personally or over telephone) in case of any concerns.

The following is a list of tests available and how the tests are being done.

• HIV: HIV is typically diagnosed through a blood test that detects antibodies to the virus. The test may be a rapid test that provides results in minutes or a standard laboratory test that takes a few days to process.
• Chlamydia and gonorrhoea: Testing for chlamydia and gonorrhoea involves collecting a sample of urine, vaginal fluid, or discharge from the urethra or rectum. The sample is then analyzed in a laboratory to detect the presence of the bacteria that cause the infection. Some tests may provide results within minutes, while others may take a few days to process.
• Syphilis: Syphilis is typically diagnosed through a blood test that detects antibodies to the bacteria that cause the infection. In some cases, a doctor may also take a sample from a sore or ulcer to examine under a microscope.
• Herpes: Testing for herpes involves collecting a sample of fluid from a blister or sore. The sample is then analyzed in a laboratory to detect the presence of the herpes simplex virus.
• Human papillomavirus (HPV): There is no specific test to diagnose HPV in men, but women can be tested for the virus through a Pap test or HPV test. A Pap test involves collecting cells from the cervix and examining them under a microscope for signs of abnormal growth or changes. An HPV test involves testing the same cells for the presence of HPV DNA.
• Hepatitis B and C: Testing for hepatitis B and C involves a blood test that detects antibodies to the virus. In some cases, additional tests may be needed to confirm the diagnosis or determine the severity of the infection.

What are the main types of Sexually transmitted diseases in Dubai?

Here is an overview of the major STDs which are common in Dubai and the Middle East (Including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman, Iran, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey etc.)

HIV: Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a virus that attacks the immune system, leading to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). HIV can be transmitted through sexual contact, sharing needles or injection equipment, or from mother to child during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding. Symptoms of HIV can include flu-like symptoms, fever, night sweats, fatigue, and weight loss. HIV can be managed but not cured, and treatment typically involves antiretroviral therapy (ART) to suppress the virus and prevent its progression to AIDS.

Chlamydia: Chlamydia is a bacterial infection that is transmitted through vaginal, anal, or oral sex. It can cause symptoms such as vaginal discharge, pain or burning during urination, and pain or bleeding during sex. However, many people with chlamydia do not experience any symptoms. Chlamydia can be treated with antibiotics, but it is important to get tested regularly if you are sexually active because it can cause long-term complications if left untreated.

Gonorrhoea: Gonorrhoea is a bacterial infection that is transmitted through vaginal, anal, or oral sex. It can cause symptoms such as vaginal discharge, pain or burning during urination, and pain or bleeding during sex. Like chlamydia, many people with gonorrhoea do not experience any symptoms. Gonorrhoea can be treated with antibiotics, but it is important to get tested regularly if you are sexually active because it can cause long-term complications if left untreated.

Syphilis: Syphilis is a bacterial infection that is transmitted through vaginal, anal, or oral sex. It can cause symptoms such as sores or ulcers on the genitals, anus, or mouth, as well as rash, fever, and swollen lymph nodes. Syphilis can be treated with antibiotics, but it can cause serious long-term complications if left untreated, including damage to the brain, nerves, and other organs.

Herpes: Herpes is a viral infection that is transmitted through skin-to-skin contact with an infected person’s mouth or genitals. It can cause symptoms such as painful blisters or sores on the genitals or mouth, as well as fever and swollen lymph nodes. Herpes cannot be cured, but antiviral medications can help manage symptoms and reduce the risk of transmission.

Human Papillomavirus (HPV): HPV is a viral infection that is transmitted through skin-to-skin contact with an infected person’s mouth or genitals. There are many types of HPV, and some can cause genital warts or increase the risk of certain types of cancer, including cervical, anal, and oral cancer. HPV can be prevented through vaccination, and it is important to get regular Pap tests and HPV tests if you are sexually active.

Hepatitis B and C: Hepatitis B and C are viral infections that are transmitted through blood or bodily fluids. They can be transmitted through sexual contact, sharing needles or injection equipment, or from mother to child during childbirth. Hepatitis B and C can cause symptoms such as fatigue, abdominal pain, and jaundice. They can be managed but not cured, and treatment typically involves antiviral medications to reduce the risk of liver damage and other complications.

It’s important to remember that anyone who is sexually active is at risk for sexually transmitted infections, regardless of their gender, sexual orientation, or relationship status. The best way to protect yourself and your partners is to practice safe sex, get tested regularly, and communicate openly and honestly about your sexual health.
