About the Chlamydia/Gonorrhoea – Rectal (PCR)
The Chlamydia/Gonorrhoea – Rectal (PCR) is a confidential sexual health test available at Medical and Dental in Central London. A swab sample is collected by a registered nurse during an appointment lasting approximately 20 minutes. Results are typically available within 2 days" and are delivered confidentially via secure email.
Chlamydia and gonorrhoea are the two most commonly reported bacterial sexually transmitted infections in the United Kingdom. Co-infection is possible, which is why combined testing is frequently recommended. Both infections can be asymptomatic — many individuals carry the infection without experiencing noticeable symptoms. When symptoms do appear, they may include abnormal discharge, discomfort during urination, or pelvic discomfort. Combined nucleic acid amplification testing (NAAT) allows both infections to be detected from a single sample, whether urine or swab. The UKHSA recommends regular testing for individuals with new or multiple sexual partners.
Who May Consider This Test
The Chlamydia/Gonorrhoea – Rectal (PCR) may be relevant for a range of individuals. The following are common reasons people choose to have this test:
- Individuals who have had unprotected sexual contact
