What is Online STD Treatment?

Online STD treatment is a telehealth service that enables patients to consult with healthcare professionals remotely for the diagnosis and treatment of sexually transmitted diseases. Common STD’s we can provide recommendations for include Chlamydia, Gonorrhea*, Trichomoniasis (Trich) and Syphilis*. Viral STDs such as herpes, HIV, hepatitis B, and HPV are not curable but can be managed with treatments prescribed through online consultations. This approach typically involves:

How Online STD Treatment Works

Begin by creating your Doctor On Demand account. This will only take a few minutes.

Patients typically begin with a virtual consultation with a board-certified doctor or nurse practitioner, discussing their symptoms and medical history.

If necessary, the provider will order appropriate STD tests. Many services offer at-home testing kits that patients can use to collect samples.

Samples are sent to a laboratory for analysis. Results usually become available within 2-3 days.

Once results are available, patients have another virtual consultation to discuss their results and treatment options.

If an STD is diagnosed and can be treated remotely, the healthcare provider may prescribe appropriate medications. These prescriptions can often be sent electronically to your local pharmacy.

What our patients are saying

"This is so convenient I can do my lab work at my convenience. Also, my prescriptions are ready right away. I don’t have to worry about catching anything in a doctors office. I love this."

—Doctor On Demand Patient

"We have used this service several times in the past with everything from the flu, to UTI, to tick bite. I would highly recommend Doctor On Demand."

—Doctor On Demand Patient

"Super nice! super efficient. Excellent experience overall. My own provider went on vacation and did not write me a prescription and I had test results showing I had a UTI. I was so concerned the way I was feeling that it might manifest into a kidney infection. And then I remembered Dr. On Demand and I had a provider within maybe five minutes she ordered my prescription, I went and got it filled, and I am so very grateful. Thank you very much for being there."

—Doctor On Demand Patient

"I awakened at 6:45 with a UTI. I downloaded couple of telehealth apps. The first didn’t take insurance so I went to this one. So glad that I did! Dr. Margo Smith was very personable, efficient and thorough. By 8:30 a script was called into the pharmacy. I loved being able to see my provider! The last time I used telehealth it was texting only. As a retired nurse, I wish that Healthcare had always been this easy."

Frequently asked questions you may have about STD's

With Doctor On Demand, you can conveniently get evaluated and treated for certain STDs from the comfort of your home. Here’s how it works:

Book a Virtual Visit – Schedule an appointment with a board-certified doctor through Doctor On Demand.
Consult with a Doctor – During your video visit, the doctor will assess your symptoms and medical history. If needed, they may recommend lab testing to confirm a diagnosis.
Get a Prescription – If appropriate, the doctor can prescribe STD treatment, such as antibiotics or antiviral medication.
Pick Up Your Medication – Your prescription will be sent to your preferred pharmacy for easy pickup.

State Regulations: Some states have restrictions on prescribing certain STD medications via telehealth. Your doctor will discuss your options based on your location.

STD tests typically include blood tests, urine tests, and swab tests. Blood tests can detect HIV, syphilis, and hepatitis B. Urine tests are used for chlamydia, gonorrhea, and trichomoniasis. Swab tests from the genital area, throat, or rectum can diagnose HPV, chlamydia, gonorrhea, and herpes. Some STDs may also require physical examinations.

To reduce the risk of contracting or spreading STDs:

Use barrier methods like condoms during sexual activity
Get vaccinated against preventable STDs like HPV
Undergo regular STD testing, especially if you have multiple partners
Communicate openly with sexual partners about STD status and testing

Generally, healthcare providers cannot prescribe STD treatment without confirming the diagnosis through testing. However, if you have a known exposure the clinician may use this information to decide on a treatment plan. If you need immediate treatment, it’s best to visit an in-person clinic or urgent care center.

Most STD testing services (Labcorp or Quest Labs) provide results within 2-3 days after the laboratory receives your samples.

For many STDs that can be treated with oral medications, online treatments can be just as effective. However, some STDs require in-person treatment, particularly those needing injectable medications.

Yes, reputable online STD services prioritize patient privacy and use secure, HIPAA-compliant platforms for consultations and sharing results.

If your STD requires in-person treatment (like gonorrhea or syphilis), your online healthcare provider will refer you to a local clinic or healthcare facility for appropriate care.
