Description
If you are sexually active, have had unprotected sex, are entering a new relationship, are experiencing symptoms of an STD, or have had a partner with an STD, you should consider getting tested. It’s important to note that if you suspect exposure to chlamydia or gonorrhea, there is a “window period” of approximately two weeks during which laboratory tests may be unable to detect the bacteria responsible for these two common STDs.

What’s included in the test?
• Chlamydia
Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by the bacteria Chlamydia trachomatis. It is the most commonly reported bacterial infection worldwide and is particularly prevalent among individuals aged 15 to 24, with approximately 1 in 20 sexually active young women (aged 14 to 24) affected. Men who have sex with men are also at higher risk of contracting chlamydia.
• Gonorrhea
Gonorrhea is another STD caused by the bacteria Neisseria gonorrhoeae. It primarily affects the mucous membranes that line the reproductive tract, with infections in women affecting the cervix, uterus, and fallopian tubes, and in men, the urethra. This bacterium can also infect the mucous membranes of the mouth, eyes, and rectum.
