Comprehensive Plus STD Panel
The Comprehensive Plus STD Panel offers expanded precision testing for individuals seeking deeper clarity beyond routine screening.
By identifying less common organisms with sex-specific clinical relevance, this panel supports a more complete understanding of sexual health and may help explain ongoing symptoms or concerns—empowering more informed conversations and personalized next steps.
Key Benefits
- Screens for Mycoplasma genitalium (MG), Mycoplasma hominis (MH), Ureaplasma parvum/urealyticum (UP/UU),
Haemophilus ducreyi (HD), and Gardnerella vaginalis (GV) - Uses vaginal swab (female) or urine (male) collection
- Includes organisms with sex-specific clinical relevance for more complete insight
- Designed to complement routine STD screening with expanded precision
This panel screens for Chlamydia (CT), Gonorrhea (NG), Trichomonas (TV), and HIV 1/2 using two sample types for accurate, complete coverage.
A finger-prick blood sample is used for HIV antibody detection. A vaginal swab (female) or urine sample (male) is used to detect the bacterial and protozoan infections. This dual-collection approach achieves the sensitivity and specificity required to reliably detect all four pathogens.
Comprehensive protection starts with clarity. This panel screens for the most common sexually transmitted infections to support routine sexual health monitoring and peace of mind. Whether you're testing after new exposure or maintaining proactive care, this panel delivers accurate, private results you can trust.
Chlamydia & Gonorrhea
CT & NG — bacterial
Trichomonas
TV — protozoan
HIV 1/2
Viral — finger-prick
Dual sample
Blood + swab or urine
- You are sexually active and want routine STI screening as part of proactive sexual health care (CDC STI Treatment Guidelines 2021 — annual screening for CT, NG, and HIV is recommended for all sexually active adults.)
- You have had a new sexual partner or multiple partners and want to confirm your status (CDC — testing after new or multiple partners is a core STI prevention recommendation.)
- You want to screen before beginning a new relationship (USPSTF — routine screening is recommended regardless of symptoms; most STIs are asymptomatic.)
- You have experienced symptoms such as unusual discharge, burning, or discomfort (CDC STI Guidelines — symptomatic individuals should be tested for CT, NG, TV, and HIV as a standard panel.)
- CDC guidelines recommend annual STI screening for all sexually active adults — this panel covers the four most common infections in a single kit (CDC STI Treatment Guidelines 2021 — CT, NG, TV, and HIV are among the most prevalent STIs in the US.)
- You want confidential testing without a clinic visit or physician referral (USPSTF HIV Screening Recommendation 2019 — supports accessible, confidential testing options for all adults.)
- You tested positive for an STI previously and are retesting after treatment (recommended at 3 months) (CDC — test of cure at 3 months post-treatment is recommended for CT and NG due to high reinfection rates.)

Frequently Asked Questions
What's included, how to collect, when you'll see results, and how to use them.
What does this panel measure?
This panel screens for the most common sexually transmitted infections, including Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG), Trichomonas vaginalis (TV), and HIV-1 / HIV-2. To ensure accurate detection across different organism types, testing uses two sample types: a finger-prick dried blood spot (DBS) and a self-collected swab (female) or urine sample (male).
How is this different from traditional testing?
Boomerang Kits deliver clinical-grade laboratory accuracy with unmatched discretion and convenience. Samples are collected privately at home, analyzed in a CLIA-certified laboratory, and results are delivered securely through the Boomerang Kits App — without appointments, waiting rooms, or telehealth upsells.
Who benefits most from this panel?
Adults seeking routine, confidential STD screening — including individuals testing after new exposure, between partners, or as part of proactive sexual health monitoring.
What if I have symptoms right now?
If you're experiencing active symptoms or known exposure, seek in-person medical care. This panel is intended for routine screening, not urgent evaluation.
Is this a diagnostic test?
No. This is a laboratory screening panel for informational purposes only. Boomerang Laboratories does not diagnose, treat, or prescribe. Consult a licensed healthcare provider for interpretation and care.
How do I collect my samples?
This panel requires two types of samples:
- Finger-Prick Blood Sample (DBS) — for HIV screening
- Self-collected swab (female) or urine sample (male) — for bacterial and protozoal organisms
Follow the step-by-step instructions included in your kit or the Boomerang Kits App. Allow the DBS card to dry fully (approximately 60 minutes) before sealing and returning all samples in the prepaid mailer.
What if my sample can't be processed?
If a sample is insufficient or cannot be analyzed, you'll be notified and sent a complimentary replacement kit.
When will I see my results?
Results are typically available 24–48 hours after the laboratory receives your samples. You'll receive a secure notification when results are ready in the Boomerang Kits App.
Is my data private?
Yes. All testing is performed under strict confidentiality in a CLIA-certified laboratory. Results are encrypted, HIPAA-compliant, and accessible only through your secure app login.
Can I use HSA/FSA funds?
Boomerang Kits are consumer-initiated and not typically billed to insurance. HSA/FSA funds may be used where eligible. Confirm eligibility with your plan provider.
