With this check you will get clarity about the most common STDs, which are detectable in urine.
Gonococci, chlamydia, and mycoplasma are among the most common sexually transmitted infections. The incubation period is not precisely defined and typically lasts from one to several weeks.
Important: For the safer sex urine tests, we need the first stream of your first morning urine. Please bring the urine in a clean container on the same day, or provide a urine sample right here at the clinic.
Note: Please bring the ID for identity verification to the testing.
Included tests
- Gonorrhea (Neisseria gonorrhoeae)
- Mycoplasma genitalium
- Chlamydia trachomatis

Chlamydia screening test
Chlamydia trachomatis is transmitted through unprotected sexual intercourse.
The incubation period is not precisely defined and typically ranges from one to several weeks.
If symptoms appear, a molecular biological test using PCR (polymerase chain reaction) should be performed. The first morning urine sample is best suited for this purpose, as the concentration of Chlamydia is highest in the morning. Chlamydia trachomatis does not confer immunity. Reinfection can occur if the person comes into contact with Chlamydia trachomatis again.
Gonorrhea screening test
Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease with an incubation period of 2–7 days. Once symptoms appear, gonococci can be detected using PCR (polymerase chain reaction). If the test is performed on urine, the first morning urine sample is best, as the concentration of gonococci is highest in the morning. Gonorrhea does not confer immunity. Reinfection can occur if the person comes into contact with gonococci again.
Mycoplasma genitalium screening test
Mycoplasma genitalium is considered the cause of both nongonococcal urethritis (NGU; inflammation of the urethra) in men and women, as well as inflammation of the uterus or fallopian tubes in women. This bacterium may also be responsible for other infections of the upper genital tract and can lead to infertility or life-threatening tubal pregnancy. Transmission occurs through sexual intercourse. Culture-based detection takes several weeks and is therefore not suitable for routine diagnostics. Molecular biological detection using PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is highly effective but not available in all laboratories. We offer this test in our laboratory along with PCR testing for chlamydia and gonococci.
Duration until findings
Up to 2 working days. The specified duration is an approximate time until the findings are available and may vary, therefore not guaranteed. On public holidays and weekends, the duration may be delayed accordingly.
