Yes. LabX tests for Chlamydia on a urine sample, starting at $149 with the At-Home STI Panel — 10-target urine PCR. Our urine STI panel tests for Chlamydia trachomatis by PCR, a nucleic acid amplification method that detects the organism's genetic material in the urine sample.
Chlamydia is a common sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis. It spreads through vaginal, anal or oral sex, and it can also pass from a pregnant person to a baby during birth.
Many people with chlamydia have no symptoms at all, which is why testing matters. When symptoms do occur they can include unusual discharge, burning when urinating, or pain in the lower abdomen or testicles. Symptoms, or the lack of them, cannot tell you whether you are infected. If you have symptoms, see a licensed physician — a test result is not a diagnosis.
Untreated chlamydia can spread to other parts of the reproductive system. It is treatable with medicine prescribed by a clinician, and partners usually need testing and treatment too so the infection is not passed back.
Our urine STI panel tests for Chlamydia trachomatis by PCR, a nucleic acid amplification method that detects the organism's genetic material in the urine sample. Samples are tested at LabX Diagnostic Systems, a CLIA-certified, COLA-accredited laboratory in Tampa, Florida. Results are typically reported in 2–3 business days from receipt.
Testing too soon after an exposure can miss an infection that is still developing. If you had a possible exposure very recently, a licensed physician can advise whether to test again later. A urine sample reflects the urinary and genital tract; it does not test the throat or rectum.
LabX STI panels do not include HIV testing. For an HIV test, ask your provider or visit gettested.cdc.gov.
A reactive result is not a diagnosis. For blood tests, the laboratory confirms a reactive screen on a second, different method before reporting it. If a result is reactive, contact a licensed clinician — this laboratory does not treat or prescribe — tell recent partners, and know that, like every clinical laboratory, LabX is required by law to report positive results for these notifiable infections to the state health department confidentially. If you are unwell, pregnant or in severe pain, seek care right away.
