Gonorrhea Testing

Gonorrhea

Neisseria gonorrhea infection is the second most reported STD in the U.S ( Chlamydia is number one). While infection rates had been declining since 1996 a 42% increase was noted in eight western states during 2002-2005 as stated by the Center for Disease Control.

Gonorrhea infection increases the risk for pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility, ectopic pregnancy and the transmission of HIV. A simple urine test (no invasive swab) called NAAT (nucleic acid amplification test) is considered the most sensitive test available today, according to the CDC, more accurate than cultures or other methods. This test will also detect the presence of Chlamydia. Protect yourself and your loved ones and ask for the Chlamydia/Gonorrhea NAAT test today.
