Self-Collection in Office or Patient Service Center, Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Vaginal Swab, NAA

This test looks for the genetic material of the bacteria responsible for chlamydia and gonorrhea in a vaginal sample. It helps identify active infections, which is critical because these conditions often have no symptoms but can lead to serious health problems if left untreated. Testing helps rule out these specific sexually transmitted infections as the cause of pelvic pain or discharge. However, this test does not detect other sexually transmitted diseases or non-bacterial infections.
