# Neisseria gonorrhoeae, NAA

> This test detects the genetic material of Neisseria gonorrhoeae, the bacteria responsible for gonorrhea. It helps show whether you have an active infection, which is important for addressing symptoms like discharge or pain. By identifying this specific bacteria, the test helps rule out other causes of infection. However, it does not determine how long you have been infected or detect other sexually transmitted diseases on its own.
