Chlamydia & Gonorrhea Test
Your sexual health is an important part of your overall well-being. The ICare Chlamydia & Gonorrhea Test is a confidential laboratory test that screens for two of the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs): chlamydia and gonorrhea.
These infections are highly treatable, but they often develop without noticeable symptoms. Many people don't realize they're infected until complications occur or the infection is unknowingly passed to a partner. Early testing allows for prompt diagnosis and treatment, helping protect your health and the health of others.
If you are experiencing symptoms, beginning a new relationship, have had a potential exposure, or simply want routine screening, this test provides fast, accurate answers—delivered with the privacy and convenience you expect from ICare.
What Does This Test Measure?
The ICare Chlamydia & Gonorrhea Test screens for two common bacterial infections.
Chlamydia (Chlamydia trachomatis)
Chlamydia is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections and frequently causes no symptoms.
When symptoms do occur, they may include:
Burning during urination
Abnormal vaginal or penile discharge
Pelvic pain
Pain during intercourse
Testicular discomfort
Rectal pain or discharge (depending on exposure)
Without treatment, chlamydia can cause long-term reproductive health complications in both men and women.
Gonorrhea (Neisseria gonorrhoeae)
Gonorrhea is another common bacterial STI that can affect the reproductive tract, rectum, throat, and, less commonly, the eyes.
Symptoms may include:
Painful urination
Increased urinary frequency
Abnormal discharge
Pelvic pain
Testicular pain or swelling
Sore throat following oral exposure
Rectal discomfort or discharge
Like chlamydia, gonorrhea may also be present without symptoms, making routine testing especially important.
Who Should Consider This Test?
The Chlamydia & Gonorrhea Test may be recommended for:
Sexually active adults
Individuals with a new sexual partner
People with multiple sexual partners
Individuals who have had unprotected sex
Anyone experiencing urinary discomfort or abnormal discharge
Individuals whose partner has tested positive for an STI
Women who are pregnant, when recommended by their healthcare provider
Anyone seeking routine sexual health screening for peace of mind
Your healthcare provider can help determine how often screening is appropriate based on your personal health history and risk factors.
