Self-obtained vaginal swabs, first-void urine and pooled specimens were collected at home and in a clinic. Percent prevalence and collection site concordance was 30.3 and 100 for Mycoplasma genitalium (74.4% azithromycin resistant) 15.1 and 96.7 for Chlamydia trachomatis and 6.6 and 100 for Neisseria gonorrhoeae (27% ciprofloxacin-resistant).

Most patients presenting with dysuria should have a urinalysis performed.
