Where to do an HIV test in Poland?
There are places in Poland (Consultation and Diagnostic Centers) where you can have an HIV test anonymously and free of charge. You can find their addresses below . The diagnosis of HIV infection is possible only when the confirmation test result (eg Western blot) is positive. If you have only performed a screening test (eg ELISA), a positive (non-negative) result does not necessarily mean that you are infected / infected with HIV - a confirmation test is necessary to diagnose an infection.

When to test for syphilis
If you have had sexual contact without securing a condom or a latex handkerchief,
if in 3-4 weeks after sexual contact on organs
genital and oral mucosa appeared painless ulceration,when there is a macular, maculo-papular rash on the body, face, limbs, the rash is not accompanied by itching,

HCV can also be infected during a visit to a hairdresser, beautician, dentist, while performing tattoos in an unproven place or when taking psychoactive substances, especially by intravenous route, or dos.

When to do the HCV test?
When I engage in unprotected sex with a condom,
if I take psychoactive substances by intravenous or nasal route and use common equipment (tubes, coils, syringes) with other people,
if you use hairdressing, cosmetic, dental services, etc., where you are not sure that the equipment was properly sterilized and disinfected,
when came into contact with blood - professionally or accidentally, e.g. during a fight, in contact sports or an accident
You can do a free, anonymous HCV screening test at some PKD e.g. Foundation for Social Education in Warsaw.
Also check out sexually transmitted infections (STIs)
