Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the Neisseria gonorrhoeae bacterium. The infection is passed from person-to-person through unprotected vaginal, anal, or oral sex. It can affect the penis, vagina, or throat, among other areas of the body.

Gonorrhea is spread through sexual contact. So the best way to prevent gonorrhea is to get tested regularly and use condoms if you have sex.

Gonorrhoea is a serious infection of the genital tract in both men and women, caused by a bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae, sometimes called the gonococcus.


Protective Measures:

Practice safer sex.

No sex until antibiotic treatment is completed and your usual sexual partner has completed treatment.

A follow-up test must be done to make sure that treatment has cleared the infection.

All sexual partners need to be contacted, tested and treated, if indicated. Even if partners have no symptoms they may be able to transmit infection to other sexual partners.

Testing to exclude other sexually transmitted infections is advisable.
