## What does the STI Basic Panel cover?

Essential STI screening — HIV, Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, and Syphilis in one order.

The STI Basic Panel covers the four most commonly screened sexually transmitted infections. It includes 4th-generation HIV testing (antigen + antibody), Chlamydia and Gonorrhea (urine-based RNA detection), and Syphilis screening. The CDC recommends STI screening for all sexually active adults, especially those with new partners or multiple partners.

**Clinical use:** 3-test STI screen: HIV (4th-gen), Syphilis (with confirmation), Hepatitis C. The lowest-cost option for routine STI screening when partner-monitoring or post-exposure peace of mind is the goal.

## Who should order it?

Sexually active adults wanting routine screening, anyone with new partners, before a relationship status change. Add the [STI Comprehensive Panel](https://www.test-well.com/tests/sti-comprehensive-panel) if you want chlamydia/gonorrhea and hepatitis B coverage.

## Common questions about the STI Basic Panel

### What's the difference between the Basic and Comprehensive STI Panels?

Basic: [HIV](https://www.test-well.com/tests/hiv-test), [Syphilis](https://www.test-well.com/tests/syphilis-test), [Hepatitis C](https://www.test-well.com/tests/hepatitis-c-test) — 3 tests, $84.99. [Comprehensive](https://www.test-well.com/tests/sti-comprehensive-panel): adds [chlamydia/gonorrhea](https://www.test-well.com/tests/chlamydia-gonorrhea), [hepatitis B](https://www.test-well.com/tests/hepatitis-b-test), and herpes — 6 tests, $249.99. Basic is the screening starter; Comprehensive is the complete workup.

### When should I test after potential exposure?

HIV (4th-gen): test at 2-4 weeks, retest at 6 weeks and 3 months. Syphilis: 3-6 weeks after exposure. Hep C: 8-12 weeks after exposure. If exposure was within 72 hours, see urgent care immediately for HIV PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis) — it can prevent infection if started early.

### How much does the STI Basic Panel cost without insurance?

On TestWell, the STI Basic Panel is $84.99. Ordering the same 3 tests separately would be about $110. Quest Direct lists comparable bundles at $125, walk-in hospital labs typically bill $300-450 for the same biomarkers without insurance. Free testing is also available at most community health centers and Planned Parenthood.

### Is everything anonymous?

Your TestWell order is private — only you can see your results in your account. Positive results that require reporting to public health (HIV, syphilis) are reported by the lab per state law, not by TestWell. We don't share your data with insurance or employers.

### Do I need to fast?

No fasting required. Any time of day is fine.

### What if a test is positive?

All TestWell STI tests use confirmatory algorithms — a reactive screen automatically triggers confirmation testing before reporting positive. You'll get follow-up instructions and provider resources with any positive result. Most STIs are highly treatable — HIV is now a chronic manageable condition, syphilis is cured with antibiotics, Hep C is curable in 95%+ with 8-12 weeks of pills.

### How often should I test?

Annually for sexually active adults with stable partners. Every 3-6 months for MSM, anyone with multiple partners, or anyone using PrEP. After any new partner. After unprotected exposure with unknown-status partner.
