Anteros relieved so much strain from my intimacy and my relationship. Understanding what microbes were there I wasn’t seeing from my normal clinical visits was extremely validating.

✓ Verified customer“My girlfriend tried other testing companies but we never understood how or if I was contributing to her recurrent bacterial vaginosis.”
Alex
✓ Verified customer“Easy to use. I had no difficulty swabbing with my partner and syncing our results together made it easier to compare our results side by side.”
Carlos
✓ Verified customer“Anteros helped guide me through back to back yeast infections then UTIs.”
Melisa
✓ Verified customer“My wife is in menopause and has been struggling with recurrent symptoms over the last few years. We tried over the counter products but wanted to check I wasn’t contributing to any of the reinfections.”

No. The Anteros Bio test analyses the microbiome — the community of bacteria and fungi in the genital area — and does not test for sexually transmitted infections (STIs). It is designed to identify microbiome imbalances that contribute to recurring infections like BV, yeast infections, and UTIs. For STI testing, consult your healthcare provider.
The test screens for the bacteria and fungi present in the vaginal or penile microbiome, including BV-associated bacteria (such as Gardnerella vaginalis), Lactobacillus levels (the 'good bacteria'), Candida (yeast), and the overall microbiome composition. It provides a profile of beneficial, context-dependent, and potentially disruptive microorganisms.
No. You can order the kit online. No doctor's visit is needed. No lab visit is needed. No prescription is needed. You collect your sample at home. Then you mail it back with the prepaid label. Your results arrive in your secure online portal.
Anteros Bio's test is performed by a CLIA, CAP, and CLEP certified laboratory — the same certification standards used in clinical settings. The at-home swab collection method is validated and non-invasive. Laboratory analysis provides a detailed breakdown of bacterial and fungal composition in your genital microbiome.
Once your sample is received by our lab, results are typically available within 5–7 business days. You’ll be notified as soon as your results are ready to view.
Yes. Your results are easy to read and made to share. You can download them or send them to your healthcare provider. That gives you a simple way to review your results together and decide on next steps.
Orders typically ship within 1–2 business days after purchase. Once shipped, you’ll receive tracking information via email so you can follow your kit’s delivery.
We’re unable to accept returns once a kit has been opened or used.
If your kit arrives damaged, is missing components, or you experience an issue with your order, please contact our support team (support@anterosbio.com) and we’ll make it right.
