Everlywell Chlamydia and Gonorrhea Test at-Home Collection Kit - Discreet, Accurate Results from a CLIA-Certified Lab Within Days - Ages 18+

Easy to follow directions.

The test arrived as promised on time. Collecting the urine and bowling specimen was not difficult. However the length of time to find out that the lab has rejected my sample with the explanation that the sticker was not placed on the specimen was 2 weeks. Further, I'm a registered nurse who knows how to collect in labor specimen. Specifically remember find the label to the specimen tube. After 2 weeks of anxiously waiting from a possible exposure, I received an email saying that my specimen was rejected because the label was not on the tube, which I know for a fact that it was. So here I am still waiting for results almost 3 weeks after I've tried to screen. They are sending me a new kid free of charge. So if you're just doing routine screening, this can work. However, if you actually think you've had an exposure I cannot recommend this because it may be a month or two before you know if you have an issue that needs to be addressed.

It worked but unfortunately my penis fell off the next day!

Muy rápido

I was skeptical at first. And even though im a little ashamed to share the results, the convenience and privacy of this whole ordeal made me relax. The process took about 5 days total from when I urinated in the vial to when I got the results by phone back. I diddnt realize that if you were positive for something, they give you the option to speak to a Dr. for free within 1-4 hours after they deliver the results and you fill out a email form. The Doctor called me back within 20 minutes, and I had a prescription at my local pharmacy in another 20 minutes. I was fascinated. Not the va, emergency room or random urgent care clinics could do that, and for that price. I paid a whole 50 dollars for the test, and another 13 for the prescription. Although im annoyed its on sale for 36$ today and i bought it only a week ago, even at the full price its well worth it to save that trip to the dr. You can do this in the privacy of your home, on your own time, at your leisure. It worked for me. Job well done.

I bought this kit in 2022 in the event I would need it one day. The expiration date on the box was April 2024. I attempted to use it in March 2024, and could not register the kit and to contact Everlywell for a replacement.I dutifully contacted Everlywell and they said they had switched labs and would send a replacement. They then told me they would not, because their “policy” is that kits must be registered within three months and used within five.The problem is that I never agreed to that “policy.” I didn’t buy from their website, so I never agreed to anything there, and it wasn’t included on Amazon.Escalating to manager made no difference. I’ll be pursuing this with Amazon and reporting it to my state survey general for deceptive business practices.It is an incredibly deceptive business practice sell a product with an expiration date and refuse to support the product before the expiration date, especially based on a “policy” to which the customer never agreed.

I was honestly too scared to go to the clinic and ask for a STD test. The prices of those tests are also a lot more expensive than I wanted to spend. This was a great alternate route. I wasn't in a rush to get results either, so it worked perfectly for me. If you want results within the same week you get tested, this product is most likely not for you. However, if you don't mind waiting 7-9 business days, you'll have your results privately! Jeez, i sound like an ad lol.Long story short : Discreet, very simple to use, results within 10 days of you sending the product(contains return label.)I don't recommend if : You want quick results

I was not paid or compensated in any way to write this review. I purchased this product with my own funds.I have used this Everlywell test kit as well as one from MyLabBox. Both kits utilize the same Cobas NAAT PCR collection tube, and both were processed by Molecular Testing Labs, a CLIA certified lab in Vancouver, WA. The Everlywell kit is more anonymous than MyLabBox, because they don't require you to include your name, address, and email address with the return sample. You only mail back the tube with an ID number and birth date.The test is simple. You urinate in a cup and use the enclosed pipette to put some drops of urine into the collection tube until it is between 2 lines. However, the instructions included with the kit are incomplete. What they don't tell you is that manufacturer says you are supposed to put 10-50 ml of first catch urine into the cup. Since there are no markings on the cup, you don't know where 10-50 ml is. If you fill the cup full, you've likely caught too much urine and have diluted the sample. After you transfer your urine specimen to the tube, you are supposed to cap it and gently invert it 5 times to mix the specimen with the reagent. After everything is mixed together, the sample is stable for 30 days, provided it is kept between 35.6 - 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Mail transport trucks are not climate controlled and will likely fall outside of this range, depending on the season. This is one reason why many healthcare facilities use private couriers to move samples to the lab.The return shipping label they give you is for First-Class Mail Package Return Service, which is slow and takes at least week to reach the lab. I always pay to upgrade the shipping to 2-day or overnight, so the sample isn't bouncing around on a hot/cold mail truck for a week, and I also get my results in a more reasonable time frame. After I received my results, thankfully negative, Everlywell reached out with instructions on how to contact customer service if I had any questions.In the end, I prefer Everlywell over MyLabBox, because it's cheaper and more anonymous. I do worry about the accuracy of the test when exposed to temperature extremes. If I do this test again, I will buy a sterile collection cup with ml markings and I will upgrade the shipping to minimize the amount of time the sample sits in one place.
