myLAB Box: prices and how it works
Home test kits
myLAB Box sells at-home collection kits that you mail to a certified lab, from single tests to a 14-panel kit that adds throat and rectal chlamydia and gonorrhea and Mycoplasma genitalium. Kits that include HIV contain a rapid at-home HIV self-test rather than a lab HIV test. Payment is cash or FSA/HSA; insurance is not accepted.
Best for: People who want a broad mail-in panel, including throat and rectal sites, without visiting a lab.

How it works
- Order a kit online; it ships in plain packaging.
- Collect a urine sample, swabs and/or a finger-prick blood sample at home.
- Mail the samples back in the prepaid envelope.
- Get an email when results are posted to your secure online account.
- If a result is positive, request a free phone consultation with a physician in your state.
Results, privacy and payment
- Results
- Results are posted to your secure online account, with an email notification. The FAQ estimates 2–8 days for processing and posting after the lab receives your samples (5–11 days from order to results, including kit delivery). The rapid HIV self-test gives a result at home in minutes.
- Privacy
- Kits ship in generic packaging with no product or company name. myLAB Box says testing is HIPAA-compliant and results are not shared with your health insurer. Positive results for reportable infections are reported to public health as required by law, even when the test is ordered online.
- Insurance and payment
- Cash pay only; the FAQ says it cannot accept payment from health insurance. FSA and HSA cards are accepted, depending on the card.
- Physician consultation
- Lab requests are authorized by affiliated physicians. Anyone who tests positive can request a free phone consultation to be evaluated for treatment of chlamydia, gonorrhea or trichomoniasis; a prescription can be sent to your pharmacy, depending on your state. The site does not state medication costs.
Pros
- Wide range, including 3-site (throat, rectal, genital) chlamydia and gonorrhea, Mycoplasma genitalium and HPV for women 30 and older.
- Free physician phone consultation for positive results; prescriptions for chlamydia, gonorrhea or trichomoniasis can be sent to a local pharmacy.
- Accepts FSA/HSA cards.
- Sells single-infection kits as well as panels.
Cons
- Shipping is free only on larger orders; smaller orders pay a shipping fee shown at checkout (the note with each price says which).
- The HIV part of the panels is a rapid antibody self-test, which can miss infections from the past 90 days.
- The site gives different results times in different places (2–5 days on some pages, 2–8 days in the FAQ).
- No insurance billing.
