How does anonymous reporting work?
STDs cause annoying health problems and can transfer to others without being noticed. If you’d like to warn your sexual partner but would prefer to stay anonymous, you have the option to do so. By sending an anonymous warning via text messaging, you can spare your sexual partner(s) a lot of unpleasantness. Tell your partner the news with an anonymous STD text, even if you don’t have any symptoms.
Every situation is different, which is why it makes sense to consider carefully what you want to tell them. Explain the troublesome situation in the text message. It’s good to indicate which STI you contracted as well as where you got tested, so that they can also get tested there.
You can simply send an anonymous STD check text via this website. After sending it, you will receive a delivery notification indicating that the message has been delivered.

Difference between STI vs. STD
STI stands for sexually transmitted infection, whereas STD means sexually transmitted disease. Essentially, one is an infection and the other is a disease.
STIs are much more common than STDs. STDs start with an STI. Before you get the disease, you get the infection. Once a sexually transmitted bacteria or virus enters your body, the infection may progress into a disease. This doesn’t necessarily need to happen; that’s why STIs are much more common than STDs.
The STI progresses into an STD once the STI becomes symptomatic. The symptoms of the STI become present and disrupt the body’s normal functions and processes.
STIs can linger around symptomless for many months or years before manifesting into an STD. The term STI is less stigmatized than STD, likely because the term "infection" is more palatable than "disease."
Now that you know the difference between STI and STD, make sure to get tested regularly. In case of a positive test, make sure to report your STI to your sexual partners, who could be at risk. Sending an anonymous STD text is vital so that they can get tested for themselves.
Frequently asked questions about reporting an STD anonymously
How do you tell someone they (could) have an STD anonymously?
Anonymously reporting an STD is possible via this website. If you have tested positive yourself, it is important to inform your partner(s). You can do this by sending an anonymous STD text. As a result, the recipient does not know who the message comes from, but he or she can take the necessary follow-up steps for his or her own health. Therefore, also indicate in your message that the person must be tested for an STD.
Delivery guaranteed
Each text message you send carries a one-time fee of £1.99. With just a few clicks, you can pay safely via Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, or Credit Card. The service is therefore not free, but in return, the delivery of your message is guaranteed. After every sent message, you will receive a confirmation of delivery with the exact time of delivery.
