The Chlamydia and Gonorrhea test is a urine test that can detect chlamydia and/or gonorrhea infections.
These are common STD's (sexually transmitted diseases)
The test can be done on urine, vaginal discharge or discharge from the penis and uses Real Time PCR (NAAT) technology to detect DNA of these infections
This is a DNA test to detect chlamydia and/or gonorrhea infections in men and women. It uses Nucleic Acid Amplification Technology to find even the smallest amount of gonorrhea or chlamydia infection. It can be done on urine or vaginal discharge.
Chalmydia is a type of bacteria that cause infection in sexually active adults. It causes a whitish discharge from vagina/penis. It is sexually transmitted
Gonorrhea is a bacterial infection that causes creamy white discharge from the vagina/penis. It can lead to infertility. It is sexually transmitted
You may have chlamydia or gonorrhea, if you :
This test can be done on urine samples, as well as discharge from the vagina, or swabs taken from the vagina, swabs from the mouth, and the rectum
In men, urine samples are recommeded, and all you need to do is urinate into a container, that will be provided by the lab
In women, swabs taken from the vagina (by a gynecologist) are preferred. If swabs are not available, urine sample can also be provided.
The report includes 2 results.
The test looks for one DNA target of chlamydia and two DNA targets of Gonorrhea. Gonorrhea is declared positive only if both targets are detected.
The test is higly accurate (>95%). The accuracy of the test depends on the sample type. The following is the test accuracy across different types of samples:
