Abstract

Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae are the two most common causes of sexually transmitted disease in the United States. Studies in adults, mostly in men who have sex with men, have shown that the prevalence of C. trachomatis and N. gonorrhoeae infections is much higher in extragenital sources compared to urogenital sources.
