Which STD test do I need?
The right tests depend on your symptoms, the type of contact you had and how long ago it was. Many infections cause no symptoms at all , so testing after a new partner or unprotected sex is sensible even if you feel fine.
How STD testing works at LANTE
- Private consultation with a female doctor about symptoms, timing and concerns.
- Sample collection — a blood draw, a urine sample and/or a gentle vaginal swab during a pelvic exam.
- Results — some rapid tests are ready the same day; laboratory PCR and blood tests usually take a few days.
- Treatment and follow-up — if a result is positive, your doctor explains treatment, partner notification and when to re-test.

Cost and insurance
Costs depend on how many tests you need and whether you are covered by Korea's National Health Insurance (NHIS). When testing is medically indicated by symptoms, NHIS can reduce the cost; routine screening and full panels are usually paid out of pocket. Across private clinics in Seoul, a comprehensive panel commonly falls in the ₩150,000–₩400,000 range. Message us for LANTE's current price for the tests you need.
