About the HPV swab (28 individually typed LR & HR DNA subtypes)
The HPV swab (28 individually typed LR & HR DNA subtypes) is a confidential sexual health test available at St Paul's Medical and Dental, our private practice at 5 Ave Maria Lane in the City of London, EC4M 7AQ. A swab sample is collected by a registered nurse in an appointment of approximately 20 minutes. Results are typically available within 6 days" and are delivered confidentially via secure email.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections worldwide. There are over 200 types of HPV, of which approximately 40 affect the genital area. HPV types are classified as low-risk (associated with genital warts) or high-risk (associated with cellular changes that may, over time, lead to certain cancers). The NHS cervical screening programme tests for high-risk HPV types. HPV testing involves collecting a swab sample, which is then analysed using PCR or hybridisation technology to identify the presence and type of HPV DNA. Most HPV infections are cleared by the immune system within two years.
St Paul's Medical and Dental is within walking distance of St Paul's tube station, Blackfriars, and City Thameslink. The clinic is open Monday to Friday from 8am to 8pm, making it convenient for City workers and local residents. All samples are processed by an accredited laboratory. Your appointment is entirely confidential, and results are delivered securely via email.
