STD testing: If a standard STD testing panel is performed, gonorrhea as well as several other STD's are usually tested by both blood (syphilis) and vaginally. (GC ,chlamydia, etc.)

If tested: Your doctor may have tested for STDs such as gonorrhea and chlamydia. You will have to ask to find out. There is not another way to find out. If you were not tested you can ask that the testing be done. Gonorrhea and chlamydia can be tested through a pelvic exam or through a urine specimen
