About

A private laboratory in Nasr City with an English website that publishes a 12-test STD panel including HIV, syphilis, hepatitis B and C, chlamydia and gonorrhoea, promises most results the same day, and sends results by WhatsApp or email.

This clinic doesn’t advertise itself as LGBTQ+ friendly. Most clinics don’t, so this isn’t a sign that it’s unwelcoming. If you’ve been, tell us how you were treated.

Egypt: good to know

Legal & safety. The UK government's travel advice says same-sex sexual activity is not explicitly criminalised in Egypt, but that the authorities have prosecuted LGBT+ people under debauchery laws, that same-sex couples showing affection in public are likely to receive negative attention, and that you may be denied entry if your gender expression or appearance does not match the sex marker in your passport.
