Talk to experienced doctor online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
The tests for Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea are from the urine sample and also from the cervical swab.
Urine sample is a preferred method because it doesn't involve a vaginal examination. A urine sample is taken and subjected to NAAT (Nucleic Acid Amplification Test). It is 94% accurate.
The other method is a swab examination, taken from Cervix in the female and a urethral swab taken from the tip of the penis in male. It involves pelvic examination.
For the infection from the throat or from the rectum a swab is taken for direct smear examination and culture.
There are no blood tests for the diagnosis of Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea.
