Quick and Reliable Gonorrhea Testing for Your Peace of Mind
STD Test for Gonorrhea is crucial as it is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae. This severe infection can lead to significant reproductive and health complications if left untreated. Gonorrhea often presents with minimal or no symptoms, making it difficult to detect without testing. When symptoms do occur, they may include unusual discharge, painful urination, and vaginal bleeding, which are similar to those of Chlamydia.
To ensure comprehensive testing, consider our Comprehensive STD Test Panel, which checks for Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, and several other STDs. Testing for other infections like Hepatitis C is vital, as it can lead to serious liver complications if not detected early. If you have had unprotected sex—whether vaginal, anal, or oral—with someone who might have Gonorrhea or Hepatitis C, it is crucial to get tested to protect your health and that of your sex partners.
