    • A sex partner with concurrent partners
    • A sex partner who has a sexually transmitted infection
  • Retest 3 months after treatment.
Men Who have Sex With Men (MSM)
  • At least annually for sexually active MSM at sites of contact (urethra, rectum, pharynx) regardless of condom use
  • Every 3 to 6 months if at increased risk
Pregnant women
  • All pregnant women under 25 years of age and older women if at increased risk
