also known as Sexual activity with known Chlamydia trachomatis AndOr Neisseria gonorhoeae case
Chlamydia and gonorrhea are two of the most common and fast-spreading sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in the United States. Both are: Highly prevalent Usually symptom-free Easily spread Caused by bacteria Because symptoms are often absent, many people who are infected don’t realize it. The CDC estimates over 3 million chlamydia infections occur each year, and gonorrhea rates have been rising sharply, especially as certain strains become more resistant to antibiotics. Why Test for Both? Chlamydia and gonorrhea frequently occur together, and having one increases your likelihood of having the other. They also share similar symptoms when symptoms do appear. Testing for both infections at the same time ensures: More accurate diagnosis Faster treatment Reduced risk of complications Protection for current and future partners That’s why healthcare providers recommend testing, and treating, both infections together. How We Test for Chlamydia & Gonorrhea: We use the FDA-approved nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT), the gold standard for detecting these infections. This test: Uses a simple urine sample Identifies the DNA of Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae Detects active, current infections If the bacteria’s genetic material is found, it confirms an active infection that requires treatment. Are They Curable? Yes! Both chlamydia and gonorrhea are 100% curable with the right antibiotics. With proper treatment, most people recover quickly. Can I Get Reinfected? Yes. Even after successful treatment, you can be reinfected if you’re exposed again. That's why routine testing after new sexual encounters is so important. Who Should Consider This Panel?
