Why Use a 3-Site (Extragenital) Test For Chlamydia and Gonorrhea

Chlamydia is the 2nd and Gonorrhea is the 4th most common sexually transmitted infection in U.S. Depending on your sexual activity, they can be transmitted and affect either the mouth, genitals or rectal area independently. If you have engaged in oral or anal sex, we recommend you use the 3-Site test kit to ensure you are in the clear. Both infections are curable when detected early. An untreated chlamydia or gonorrhea infection can cause serious, permanent damage to a woman’s reproductive system, making it difficult or impossible for her to get pregnant later on. Infections can lead to serious complications such as life-threatening pregnancy outside the womb, infertility and long-term pelvic/abdominal pain. Both men and women can develop painful rectal and oral (throat) infections.

• Chlamydia is the most commonly reported STD in the United States.

• Discharge from the penis or vagina
• Burning feeling during urination
• More frequent urination
