CULTURE AND SENSITIVITY (GENITAL SWAB)

The Culture and Sensitivity (Genital Swab) is a home-collected genital swab test that cultures bacteria, fungi or other pathogens from the genital area and determines which antibiotics or antifungals are effective, helping clinicians choose targeted therapy. It is recommended for suspected STIs, recurrent or persistent urethritis/vaginitis, or symptoms that did not resolve with empirical treatment, and helps reduce inappropriate antibiotic use and resistance. A trained, discreet healthcare professional collects the swab at home across Dubai and the UAE, with samples processed in accredited laboratories and results delivered securely to you and your clinician to guide safe, effective treatment.
