Gonorrhoea Testing near you in Panama City
Gonorrhoea is an STI that can affect the genitals, mouth (if you have given oral sex) and anus (if you have received anal sex). It is important to include Gonorrhoea in your STI tests in Panama City as it is a common STI.
Gonorrhoea can cause infertility in women and reduced fertility in men. It can be easily passed on from one person to another. Most people with Gonorrhoea do not have any symptoms in the first few weeks and months of a new infection.
Our Panama City clinics near you test for Gonorrhoea in your genital area with a urine sample. This will be tested in our laboratory and as soon as your results are back, we will report them to you.
Book your Gonorrhoea test in Panama City by calling the number above or booking online now.
How do I know if I have an STD?
Our doctors say that you cannot diagnose an STD on symptoms alone. The only way to know if you have an STD is to get tested.
Most men and women do not experience any symptoms when they contract an infection. Some people can go months or even years and not show many, or any, outward symptoms. That is why it is important to get tested often, especially if you are sexually active or have had sex with a new partner.
When they do occur, common STD symptoms include:
Unusual discharge from the vagina, penis, or anus
Painful urination
Pain during sexual intercourse
Blemishes, such as sores, blisters, bumps, or rashes that appear on the genitals, rectum, or mouth
Itching around the genital area
Pain in the abdomen
Flu-like symptoms, including fever and headaches
Unusual weight loss
In women: unusual vaginal bleeding, particularly after sex
If left unaddressed, STDs can result in severe health complications including infertility, Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, certain types of cancer, and a compromised immune system.
If you have concerns about your sexual health, take the initiative to get tested today at a Better2Know clinic in Panama City. Booking your appointment is easy. Please click on the sexual health clinic nearest you on the provided map and book your appointment online now.
STIs and pregnancy in Panama City
When you or your partner is pregnant in Panama City, it is one of the most important times for a woman not to get an STI. Having an STI while you are pregnant can cause serious damage to your unborn baby. You should always follow the advice of your Panama City doctor and midwife when you are pregnant, but if you are worried you should test for:
HIV
Herpes (if you have never had herpes before)
Chlamydia
Gonorrhoea
Syphilis
STIs can be passed on to your baby before or during the birth. Most transmissions (passing on to your baby) can be prevented (including HIV) but your midwife needs to know that you have an STI to be able to stop the baby becoming unwell.
