Gonorrhea NAAT test dilution?

I recently had a urine test for Gonorrhea, it will be tested using NAAT

I'm 100% confident that I will be negative, but I have a question about dilution.

I drank approximately 2liters of fluid throughout the course of the day before the test, urinating 4-5 times throughout as well.

The sample I gave was fairly clear, light yellow.

Could a sample be deemed as being too diluted? Do they test the gravity levels or just for gonorrhea?

Hi if you have gono the Naat test is very accurate but getting the first bit of urine in the cup is the most important aspect of urine testing and being to diluted would not be an issue

Hi,

I know I don't have it, but I had to provide a sample for a visa medical.
There's only one doctor you can go to in the country for the visa medical and it's not a short journey.

So I was just wondering if they could reject the sample for being too diluted from drinking water, your answer has gave me some reassurance.

Thank you for the quick reply
