How to Read Your Results
Please note that Gay City generally will not release inconclusive results, nor will we release reactive/positive results without first connecting with clients.
In the Observation Identifier (i.e. test type), the keywords to look for on your results are:
- Positive/reactive: Tested positive
- Negative/nonreactive: Tested negative
Test Types
| Observation Identifier | Screens For |
| RPR (Rapid Plasma Reagin) | Syphilis |
| Neisseria Gonorrhoeae | Gonorrhea |
| Chlamydia Trachomatis | Chlamydia |
| HIV | Human Immunodeficiency Virus |
Below is an example of where to view these identifiers on your HIV/STI testing results:
In the test above, the HIV test indicates a negative result. For the RPR Qualitative (Syphilis), the STI test result is nonreactive (or negative).
If you have questions about your test results, please contact us at 206-860-6969 x718 or email us at [email protected].
