Urine Testing & Specimen Collection

Gay City proudly offers you self-administered urine testing for two STIs: Chlamydia and Gonorrhea. Self-collected urine tests provide a less invasive method for testing – no blood samples or swabs to be inserted into your body.

All results will be available to clients within two weeks through the online testing results portal.
