STD-Testing Accessories

The Hoope Ring Makes a Simple Pinprick to Check for Four Common STIs

One can only imagine the massive numbers of undiagnosed sexually transmitted diseases, simply because carriers are either asymptomatic, or dreading going to the doctor. This STD-testing accessory would revolutionize the examination process, making the discovery of the most commonly passed on illnesses convenient, quick and private.

The talented team at Vorm Lab has been working on its affordable Hoope Ring, which would ideally become a must-have device among sexually active people -- the college crowd especially. Users would carry on with safe sex habits, providing themselves with scientific feedback each time they test for chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis and trichomoniasis with the STD-testing accessory. It saves the time it would take to see a doctor and wait for results, plus the discomfort from that whole experience. This device delivers your diagnosis right to the Hoope smartphone app.
