MUMS offer Hepatitis B Testing 6 days a week with rapid results. Hepatitis B can cause long lasting infection and can cause liver damage including cirrhosis and even liver cancer. It is important to be tested if you think you may be infected.

Hepatitis B is a virus and can be contracted with infected blood, unprotected sex, sharing needles and mothers can pass it to their babies during childbirth. Hepatitis B can also be caught easily from blood and therefore can be caught on surfaces, cuts, and tears.

Treatment of Hepatitis B means resting and being monitored by a specialist consultant. Miss Hannah Church – MUMS sexual health consultant is an expert in the testing and treatment of Hepatitis B – using anti-viral medication.

We also offer an instant Hepatitis B Test which costs £95.00. Results are available within 15 minutes, and we recommend a 28-day waiting time between possible infection date and testing date. Because Miss Hannah Church may recommend a laboratory test as opposed to an instant test – which may require laboratory confirmatory testing for Hepatitis B – we advise patients to have the Hepatitis B Laboratory test which is a blood test in the first instance.

MUMS Hepatitis B Screen Testing service is easy to access, confidential and accurate. If you want to know your Hepatitis B status – tested by experts – then call us on 0121 704 2669 or book online or send us an enquiry.

Do try to determine the time between when you suspect you may have contracted the Hepatitis B Virus in readiness for the Hepatitis B Test at MUMS as the incubation period is important.
