Gonorrhea Home Test Kit

Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae. It is one of the most common STDs worldwide. The initial stage of the infection is often asymptomatic; therefore, many people do not realize that they have gonorrhea. Some women may experience bleeding between their periods. Men and women may also suffer a burning sensation while urinating – but this is only if symptoms do develop. If left untreated, gonorrhea can lead to serious complications such as pelvic inflammatory disease in women, epididymitis in men, and in infertility in both sexes.

Early detection and treatment are paramount for avoiding these complications. Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting tested for gonorrhea using our gonorrhea rapid home test kit.

Testing for gonorrhea is possible from day 2-6 after exposure

Testing for gonorrhea is preferably done between days 2-6 after possible exposure.

The gonorrhea STD test kit will show an accurate result, also after 6 days. Symptoms of gonorrhea might not appear until day 30 after being exposed to the bacteria Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Symptoms do not have to be present to get an accurate result. After the treatment has been finished, wait for 2 weeks and confirm if the infection has cleared up by doing a test once more.

The Gonorrhea Rapid Screen Test is a qualitative test for the detection of the gonorrhea antigen in urogential specimen. Gonorrhea is a common sexually transmitted disease caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae. The bacterium can grow in warm moist areas of the reproductive tract, and also in the anus, throat, eyes and mouth. Most women and some men with gonorrhea do not have any symptoms. Possible symptoms include: burning sensation during urination, coloured (green, yellow, white) discharge from the penis or vagina, and pain or swelling of testicles. If left untreated, gonorrhea may lead to permanent damage of the reproductive organs and infertility, and spread to blood and joints and become life-threatening.

INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS

Positive (+) Result

Two rose-pink bands appear at “C” and “T”. The sample is considered positive for Gonorrhea. Please visit a doctor or licensed medical facility for confirmation testing and treatment.

Negative (-) Result
