A member asked:
Will a pcr urine test still pick up an std if there are no symptoms or discharge and the person is infected?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If you are only interested in the tests for chlamydia & gonorrhea they will find it if it is there, symptoms or not. It would not exclude STD's that are not tested that way.
