Chlamydia, gonorrhea, and trichomoniasis are easily diagnosed and treated
Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are infections that are usually spread from person to person during vaginal, anal, and oral sex. Three of the most common STDs are chlamydia, gonorrhea, and trichomoniasis. Although these three STDs are quite common, a lot of infected people do not show any symptoms, and are unaware that they have an STD and can pass the disease to others. Without treatment, these STDs can lead to serious health complications. However, chlamydia, gonorrhea, and trichomoniasis are easy to test for and can be effectively treated. Get tested today in the privacy of your own home.
Why consider this test?
You should consider getting tested if:
- You are sexually active
- You have had unprotected sex
- You are entering a new relationship
- You are experiencing symptoms of an STD
- You have had a partner with an STD
If you suspect that you have been exposed to chlamydia, gonorrhea, or trichomoniasis, be aware that there is a “window period” of around two weeks where laboratory assays are unable to detect the bacteria that cause chlamydia and gonorrhea, and a “window period” of around 3-6 weeks where laboratory assays are unable to detect the protozoa that causes trichomoniasis.

What’s included in the Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Trichomoniasis Test?
• Chlamydia
Chlamydia is a STD caused by the bacteria Chlamydia trachomatis. It is the most commonly reported bacterial infection worldwide. Chlamydia is most common among people between the ages of 15 to 24. Approximately 1 in 20 sexually active young women (aged 14 to 24) has chlamydia. It is also common among men who have sex with men.
• Gonorrhea
Gonorrhoeae is a STD caused by the bacteria Neisseria gonorrhoeae. It affects the layer of cells that lines the reproductive tract (the mucous membranes). In women, gonorrhea infections can affect the cervix, uterus and the fallopian tubes. In men, the infection affects the urethra. This bacterium can also infect the mucous membrane of mouth, eyes and the rectum.
• Trichomoniasis
Trichomoniasis is caused by the protozoa Trichomonas vaginalis. Infections affect the lower genital tract, the vulva, vagina, cervix or urethra in women. The inside of the penis (urethra) is the most commonly infection body part in men.

FAQ's
Here are the answers to the most frequently asked questions about this test. Please feel free to contact us if you have any other questions.
Who should get tested?
Testing should be conducted in females with abnormal vaginal discharge. Routine testing should occur in HIV-positive females. Testing should be considered in high-prevalence settings (e.g. STD clinics and correctional facilities) and in those with a high risk of infection (e.g. multiple sex partners).
Why should I get tested?
Trichomoniasis is a common STD, particularly in black females, but many infected individuals remain asymptomatic. Testing is simple and non-invasive. Treatment is simple and effective and will prevent any complications associated with this STD.
What are ways to reduce the risk of trichomoniasis?
Practicing safe sex with a latex condom significantly reduces the risk of STDs, although it is not 100% effective. Prompt treatment is important. Abstaining from sexual contact until the completion of treatment will prevent the spread of trichomoniasis to your partner.
If I get a positive result, what should I do next?
Contact a health professional to begin a course of prescribed antibiotics as soon as possible. Abstain from sexual contact until the completion of the antibiotic course. Ensure that any recent sexual partners are aware of your diagnosis so they can also request testing.
Can I get trichomoniasis again?
Yes. Although antibiotic treatment is effective for the current bacterial infection, it does not prevent future infections through exposure to an infected individual.
How do I collect a test sample?
Collect 20-30 ml of the initial urine stream into the sterile urine collection container. Urine must be collected at least 1 hour after previous urination. Transfer 2 ml of urine into the sample transport tube and seal in the transport bag.

How is trichomoniasis treated?
Trichomoniasis is effectively treated with a course of antibiotics. It is important to complete the antibiotic course as prescribed and to abstain from sexual contact until the treatment is complete.
How does the trichomoniasis test work?
Our lab uses a molecular testing technique known as a nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) to detect the presence of Trichomonas vaginalis nucleic acid in the urine sample. NAATs are the most sensitive method for trichomoniasis diagnosis.
