Gonorrhoea

Gonorrhea is a common sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacteria Neisseria gonorrhoeae. It primarily affects the genitals, but can also infect the throat and rectum. Many people experience no symptoms, but it can cause painful urination, discharge, and, in some cases, infertility if left untreated. Gonorrhea is transmitted through sexual contact. It’s important to get tested and treated, as antibiotics are effective in curing the infection. Practicing safe sex, such as using condoms, can help prevent transmission. Regular check-ups are recommended for sexually active individuals to ensure early detection and treatment.
