The incubation period begins at the point of infection and continues until the person has symptoms. You can't detect an infection before you have it. You can detect gonorrhea before you have symptoms, during the incubation period.

No, gonorrhea cannot typically be detected in a test before the incubation period. The incubation period is the time between initial infection and the onset of symptoms. Testing for gonorrhea is most accurate after symptoms appear or at least one to two weeks after exposure.
