has abstract	Preventx is a provider of remote/self-sampling sexual health testing kits and routine and emergency contraception based in , Sheffield. Established in 2008, Preventx has completed over 10 million tests for infectious diseases now processing over 300,000 tests each month. The COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom has increased use of remote health services, as people are more used to testing themselves at home. After March 2020 use rose by more than 200% as many sexual health service clinics closed. It was awarded a contract to provide at-home testing kits for 31 London boroughs, coordinated by Sexual Health London, until at least 2023 as in-person testing was restricted to people with symptoms. The firm supplies more than 60% of the local authorities in England and claims to be the world’s biggest publicly-funded STI testing service. Some of the sexually transmitted infection tests involve filling up a vial of your own blood which some people find difficult. The firm discovered in a survey of 8,676 women that Trichomonas vaginalis was more common in women from ethnic minority backgrounds and they were also more likely to test positive when not displaying symptoms than white women. The firm polled 500 women in 2021 who attempted to access long-acting contraceptive choices and found that 30% could not get a long-acting reversible contraceptive coil or an implant because of the disruption of sexual health clinics. This had sent them to abortion services, and the morning-after pill. Synova is a substantial investor in the business and is backing plans to expand services into Spain, Belgium and Germany. (en)
