STI Diagnosis
Combatting sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and dismantling societal taboos.
The Problem
STIs are a hidden global epidemic, with more than 400 M new cases every year.1
Most infections are asymptomatic, meaning that they are often unnoticed and left untreated. But STIs infections can have devastating consequences, especially for women, including cervical cancer and infertility.
Despite health organisations recommend chlamydia screening at least once per year,2 embarrassment and inconvenience often deter people from getting tested.
