Default Chlamydia tests

How do men test for chlamydia? Don't they have to do a swab or something? I hear about a urine test but don't understand how that works.

Swab (or culture) tests are still used to diagnosed chlamydia and for years were the mainstay of diagnosis. Now, there are urine tests that are much, much better and far easier to take. Literally, you pee in a cup. No swabs pokin' in places where a guy doesn't want one to go in the first place!

The tests offered through getSTDtested.com are indeed the urine tests. You can check it out at Get STD Tested - STD Tests & STD Testing Procedures Explained

You know, I don't think I'd even bother to do one of those swab tests! Sounds like something from the dark ages. LOL at "pee in a cup" but, hey, that's what it is!

Thanks be for modern tests....

The pee in a cup test also works for gonorrhea. Easy way to do it.
