 For Best Results
  • Collect the specimen after a three-day time period where you do not have sex.
  • Collect the specimen in the doctor's office or clinical laboratory by masturbating.
  • Collect the specimen in a sterile container. Do not collect in a condom.
  • Deliver the specimen to the laboratory within 1-2 hours of collection.
  • Keep the specimen at body temperature during transportation.
 Remember
Please be sure to bring the paperwork your doctor gave you (orders for the laboratory). If you currently are not registered at Hermann Hospital, the Outpatient Laboratories at Hermann Professional Building and Houston Medical Center will register you when you arrive for your blood test. Be prepared to tell us:

  1. your name
  2. your date of birth
  3. your social security number
  4. your doctor's name
  5. the name of the test your doctor ordered.
If you are having your test done at a laboratory in the Hermann Hospital complex, you may park in the Hermann Professional Building Garage.
