Avatar f tn Chlamydia can be detected through urine testing. But lots of things are tested through the urine. You should ask your doctor what and why you were tested for. You are entitled to know what you were seen for. And what they test you for as well.
Avatar n tn If you have been taking levaquin, do not have a urine chlamydia test. Levaquin cures chlamydia and would make the test negative, even if you were infected recently. At this point, there is no point in having any more chlamydia testing at all.
Avatar m tn The latest lab test slip had written chlamydia, gonorrhea, trich and had urine culture checked off. I just learned today when speaking with a lab representative that all chlamydia/gonorrhea tests done at this hospital are culture tests. I read that the culture tests are not as sensitive as the non-culture NAAT tests and that most places have switched to NAAT test. Moreover, culture tests are harder to conduct sometimes causing lots of false negatives in inexperienced hands.
Avatar f tn Are chylamedia and gonorrea urine test accurate for women? I had 2 urine test 1)after 4 weeks 2)at 7 weeks both negative Are they conclusive or do I need a swab test?
Avatar n tn I didn’t pay attention to the discharge then but only 1,5 months later had a chlamydia urine test which came back negative. I don’t know exactly which kind urine test was done but assume it to be one of the modern ones. My negative test was 1,5 months ago and now I am wondering whether I should still have a new test done. 1. How reliable are urine tests for men? I didn’t void for an hour before the test but “filled up” the cup a bit more than was instructed.
Avatar n tn we usually test for chlamydia with either urine or an urethral swab, not a semen sample. If your chlamydia test came back negative, odds are it's a different bacteria in your semen. have you continued to have symptoms? we usually use cipro for most prostatitis infections so I'm not sure what they are planning on changing you to?
Avatar m tn Also, I gave a urine sample again today but the doc had said that he was happy to do chlamydia test. Further on the email he said, lets start by updating chlamydia/GC. Do they just automatically do both or he had to specify it? This is just all confusing and unpleasant to me.
Avatar f tn Why do you think that there was pre-cum in the specimen you provided? Generally start of the stream is recommended for Chlamydia urine test (and No clean catch), so no, it should not matter if pre-cum was included in the sample. Why would doctors ask a patient to ejaculate for a test, when it can be done by using urine? Don't understand the logic of your question at all.
Avatar n tn Could anyone please tell me what a GC and CT test for urine is testing for? Is this gonorrhea and chlamydia?
Avatar m tn I fully understand that identifying either pathogen requires specific test, but can standard urine test at least signal any potential bacterial infection? Also, if my Doctor tells me I have a low grade UTI, would STD possibly fall into that category? Would an STI that is causing me this much discomfort not show up in urine test or only be considered a low grade UTI?
Avatar m tn My sexual partner gave me chlamydia several months ago and i was cured. Several months later, we had protected sex and i got another chlamydia test and it was negative. I told him that I was not going to have sex with him anymore until he gets tested. He got tested and all of his tests were blood tests and they came back negative. We had unprotected sex and I have been having symptoms of chlamydia and haven't had any other sexual partners.
Avatar m tn Hi, I was wondering if a Chlamydia urine test at nearly 10 days (4 hours short of 10 days) post exposure is accurate? The test results say Chlamydia trachomatis PCR: Urine: NOT DETECTED. Is a PCR test the same as a NAAT test? Thanks a lot.
Avatar f tn Both gonorrhea and chlamydia are detected in a urine test. They draw blood for a syphilis test and here are the tests used to diagnose genital herpes https://www.webmd.com/genital-herpes/genital-herpes-diagnosis#1. No sores is a good sign that herpes is not a factor for you.
Avatar m tn I had unprotected oral sex 4 weeks ago. The next day I had a burning when I urinated and my throat stated to get sore. The burning got better after 3 or 4 days but I still have a slight burn after I urinate and my throat is still sore. I got tested 24 days afterwards for Chlamydia/GC [ urine test ] and blood test for Hep A,B,C, HIV, Herpes 1 & 2. All came back negative except Herpes 1 and they say I may have gotten that when I was a child.
Avatar f tn Hi - this is a two part question. 1. In July, I had a ThinPrep pap test as part of my first prenatal appointment. A "Chlamydia, Nuc. Acid Amp" test was performed and it tested positive. I have been married for 11 years with no other partners and have never tested positive (this is my third child), so I asked for a retest. The next day I took a urine test - "Chlamydia trachomatis, NAA" and it came out negative.
Avatar m tn Needles to say after this morning I went to the doctor who did a urine test and I told him about the levofloxcin. The urine test came back negative. He is still sending it off for culture. But could the levofloxcin have cuase a false negative that quick on the urine test. Also after the doctor visit and taking that 1 tablet of levofloxcin I have no symptoms..discharge or need to urinate, Could this all be cause of condom irration? It was a condom without spermicide.
Avatar f tn My husband an d i been together for over 14 years, recently he told me he has been unfaitful, i went to my doctor and got tested for any STD, my test result came back positive for chlamydia and hsv1, i got tested through Quest, my husband did his independely and went to Labcorp and his test came back positive for HSV1 and false positive for HSV2, but negative on Chlamydia...
Avatar m tn So what test I need to test? I had test for HIV, (swab test), herpes 1&2, hep a,b,c ,chlamydia(bloodtest), cytomegalovirus. All negative except positive cytomegalovirus. So what test I still need to do? Cytoplasma genitalium, crab, urethritis, croncoid and others test I need to do?? Confusing and worrying...
Avatar m tn It would be helpful to know something about your sexual risks for STD, which would be a better basis than WBC in your urine to judge the likelihood you have gonorrhea or chlamydia, such as new sexual partnership, multiple partners, whether your partner(s) have sex with other persons, etc. Also your age. Depending on these factors, your risk might be low enough that you can rely on the urine/WBC result without other testing.
Avatar m tn I had a Chlamydia and Gonorrhea urine test 11 days post possible exposure. The test was done by Nucleic Acid Amplification. My urine was also in my bladder for an hour and I only sampled the begining part of my stream per the test collecter. I was negative for both. Is this an accurate test and would you consider it conclusive? I never had any symtoms and feel fine but I want to be sure that these tests are accurate.
Avatar m tn How sensitive is a culture test for chlamydia/gonorrhea using urine sample? 50%? 75%? I could not find a good reference. Does anyone know where one can get a PCR test for Trichomoniasis? Thanks!
Avatar m tn Yesterday I had a burning feeling while passing urine. I made a general urine test which was negative. I am totally afraid that this could be chlamydia. Would this discharge come out with urine or does it show on tip of penis without urine. Please help.
Avatar m tn Oh sorry, this part was the urine test, I have it annotated by him on the results as being fine but I still am a typical hypochondriac.
