Do the STD panels include HIV and syphilis? STD clinic in Seoul, Korea

The short answer

The swab panels (STD 6 to STD 21) test genital infections such as chlamydia, gonorrhea and HPV. HIV and syphilis require blood tests, which can be added at the same visit. They are already included in the DB women's checkup, the wedding checkups and the early pregnancy checkup.

Ask your doctor to add HIV, syphilis and hepatitis blood tests if you want comprehensive screening. Packages that include them: DB checkup, wedding checkups, early pregnancy checkup.
