Common Symptoms of Gonorrhea
Some people with gonorrhea have no symptoms. When symptoms do occur, they may include:

- Rectal itching, pain, discharge or bleeding

Important: Site of Exposure Matters
Gonorrhea testing works best when the correct sample type is collected for the area of possible exposure.
A urine test is commonly used for genital exposure, but it may not detect throat or rectal gonorrhea. If exposure involved oral or anal sex, ask a healthcare provider whether throat or rectal swab testing is needed.
Important Collection Note
For urine-based gonorrhea testing, the lab may request a first-catch urine sample. This usually means collecting the first part of the urine stream.
You may be instructed not to urinate for at least one hour before collection. Follow the lab location's instructions carefully.
Important Health Warning
If you have severe pelvic pain, severe testicular pain, fever, abdominal pain, eye pain, vision changes, pregnancy-related concerns, symptoms after sexual assault, immune system problems or any urgent medical concern, seek medical care promptly.
Do not use this test as a substitute for urgent medical evaluation, diagnosis or treatment.
