UpToDate states that NAAT should be used for initial workup of gonorrhea. CDC also states this. Card is misleading since it suggests that there is only 1 STI that should be tested by NAAT.
"The specifics of diagnostic testing for N. gonorrhoeae at initial evaluation depend on the patient population and presentation, but it generally consists of NAAT of a self-collected specimen."
