* Please note that the lab results are estimates and can vary. Tests taken after 1pm will be classified as the following day for timing purposes. You will receive a written analysis of your results within 1 working day of them being available from the laboratory. It is often possible for the doctor who reviews your results to be the same doctor who requested them. This is considered medical best practice but will add an additional 1 working day to the timings. If you have multiple tests then we shall wait to report on them together unless the first results highlight any reason for concern. Sometimes the preliminary results will determine that additional tests need to be carried out on your sample. If this is the case then your results will take longer. There is no additional charge for this service.

What is Gonorrhoea
Gonorrhoea is a very common sexually transmitted infection. This condition is very easy to pass on via sexual activity. Transmission rates are 20% for men and 50% for women.
The bacteria evolves rapidly and is becoming increasingly resistant to common antibiotics. Therefore, a combination of antibiotics are normally used in treatment. It is advised to get retested after treatment to make sure that the infection has cleared up.
How do you catch Gonorrhoea
Gonorrhoea is caused by a bacterial infection. The infection can be passed on by oral, vaginal and anal intercourse. Symptoms often appear just a few days after exposure.
Common symptoms of Gonorrhoea in men
- Urethral discharge from the penis
- Burning on passing of urine
- Prostrate problems
Common symptoms of Gonorrhoea in women
- Vaginal discharge
- Burning on passing of urine
- Lower abdominal pain
How do we test for Gonorrhoea
Gonorrhoea is tested for by a simple urine or self swab test. There is no need to take a blood sample. Our combined Chlamydia & Gonorrhoea test is available for £63 (results in 2-3 days) or £79 (next day results).
Treatment of Gonorrhoea
Gonorrhoea is becoming increasing resistant to common antibiotics. Therefore treatment typically involves a combination of both oral (e.g Azithromycin) and injectable (e.g. ceftriaxone) antibiotics.
Condoms are an effective was to reduce transmission via vaginal and anal sexual activity.

Why Choose DocTap?
DocTap seek to provide the most convenient, fastest, effective and best value private STI testing service in London. With 8 STD clinics across London and same day appointments available 7 days a week, it has never been easier to book a gonorrhoea test. We are proud to partner with The Doctors Laboratory (TDL) which has a worldwide reputation for excellence.
Unlike many walk in STI clinics, you will see a UK accredited GP who will be able to offer their expert option on what test is most appropriate for you. Your results will also be accompanied by a written analysis of what they mean and what your doctor advises you to do next. Should additional treatment be required, or if you simply wish to discuss the results in more detail, then you can book a 15 minute follow up consultation for only £25. This can either be at any DocTap clinic or over the phone. When booking your follow up consultation you can request to see you original doctor if you wish (subject to their availability).
Should you require a full consulation before deciding to have a gonorrhoea test then there may be insufficient time to also take a blood sample in the appointment. In that case you can choose to either go to our walk in laboratory by Oxford Street (£15 phlebotomy fee applies) or to make a second appointment for the doctor to take the bloods.
