A Gonococcal Smear test looks for the bacteria that causes gonorrhoea in your body. Antibiotics can be used to treat the infection. However, if left untreated, gonorrhoea can cause infertility and other serious health issues. It can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease and ectopic pregnancy in women. Ectopic pregnancy occurs when a pregnancy develops outside of the uterus and the baby is unable to survive. Ectopic pregnancy can be fatal to the mother if not treated quickly.
A Gonococcal Smear test is used to determine whether or not you have gonorrhoea. It's sometimes done in conjunction with a chlamydia test, which is a different type of sexually transmitted disease (STD). The symptoms of gonorrhoea and chlamydia are similar, and the two STDs frequently occur together.
