How Roidsafe Works

If you are currently taking, about to start or just finished a course of non-prescribed Anabolic Steroids or other Performance and Imaging Enhancing Drugs (PIEDs) then it’s time to get tested. 

Roidsafe is a discreet pathology referral service. We don’t test for the presence of steroids in your body, we test for the potential impact of steroid use.  

With our online service you enjoy 100% patient confidentiality. Even though the use of non-prescribed Anabolic Steroids or other PIEDs is illegal in Australia, there is no mandatory reporting requirement to report their use. You can trust us. Your confidentiality and safety is ensured and our service is 100% legal.  

We understand the barriers preventing you speaking to your GP about steroid use. It can feel scary and awkward because of the legal implications. Even going to a GP to ask for certain tests, without mentioning the word ‘steroids’ can lead to a lot of questions. By removing the face-to-face side, Roidsafe is here to encourage you to get tested. We want you to make informed decisions about your health, and that starts with knowing what’s happening in your body.  

With Roidsafe you don’t talk to a doctor, you don’t need to make multiple appointments that can be costly and time-consuming. You also don’t need to find a specialist testing facility. We give you a referral, you take it to a pathology collection centre and the results arrive to your phone. We hope the ease, speed and confidentiality of our process helps you get the tests you need more often.

Get your Roidsafe pathology referral today through our easy online process. You will be asked a series of questions through our confidential questionnaire, and you’ll make payment through our secure checkout.   

Step 2: Receive your Referral

Upon completion of checkout, you’ll immediately receive an email with your pathology referral attached – it comes instantly, so please check your inbox & junk mail. Please note email & SMS communications you receive from us will mention ‘STIGMA Health and Roidsafe’. STIGMA Health is our associated pathology referral platform.  

Step 3: Receive your Results

Within 48 hours of signing up and ordering, you’ll receive an SMS from Stigma Health and Roidsafe. This message contains a link to download our secure app to your phone, as well as your unique token (6 digit number). You must complete this step within 48hours to be able to access your results when they are ready. This app is secure, encrypted medical technology that manages our patient records.  Wait for the token to setup the app! 

Step 4: Take Referral to Pathology Centre Near You 

Please print out the referral you have received from Roidsafe. Make sure to sign the Medicare Assignment section, this will ensure you are bulk billed for testing. Your referral from Roidsafe will be accepted at ALL Pathology Clinics Australia-wide, that is over 10,000 collection points; most major brands in pathology bulk bill so we recommend you check at the pathology clinic or with a phone call in advance. Please present your referral at your chosen pathology clinic. You will then be confidentially tested for the tests requested by Roidsafe.  

Step 5: Receive Results Securely Through Your Phone

Results generally take 3-5 business days from the time of testing at the pathology clinic to results being available to our Roidsafe doctor. Once they have been reviewed by the doctor, they will be sent to our secure app on your mobile phone. This is why it’s important you follow Step 2 in a timely manner so you are setup to receive your results. You won’t need to speak to one of our doctors during the results process. Instead you will receive their review of your test results and anything concerning will be highlighted for your attention. Your results will be provided with parameters so you can understand their meaning.  

Step 6:
Repeat testing as you require.

The recommended testing, is before, during, and after you complete your testing. We refer to this as 3-points of testing.

You can choose between ordering  1 to multiple tests at once. With savings on administration passed onto you in the costs.
