Chlamydia/Gonorrhoea PCR (Throat Swab) STI/In-Store Testing(LML)

This test measures the presence of Chlamydia and Gonorrhoea infections in the throat. It can contribute to the diagnosis of these sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in both males and females.

This PCR (NAAT) test detects Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections in the throat. It is recommended for individuals who have had oral sex or may have been exposed to a sexually transmitted infection (STI). Many throat infections cause no symptoms, making testing the only reliable way to detect infection. A throat swab is collected by a healthcare professional and analysed using highly sensitive PCR technology for accurate results. Early diagnosis allows prompt treatment and helps prevent transmission to sexual partners. Suitable for both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals based on their sexual exposure.
