| What is Gonorrhea? | ||
Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae. This type of bacterium likes to grow and increase in warm moist areas such as the reproductive tract, including the cervix (opening to the womb), uterus (womb), and fallopian tubes (egg canals) in women, and in the urethra (urine canal) in women and men. The bacterium can also grow in the mouth, throat, eyes, and anus.
There are an estimated 700,000 new N. gonorrhoeae infections each year, however from our experience the numbers are a lot higher due to people not reporting it with their own doctor and seeking self treatment
Gonorrhea is the second most commonly reported bacterial STD after Chlamydia. The majority of urethral infections caused by N. gonorrhoeae among men produce symptoms that cause them to seek help and treatment soon enough to prevent serious problems. Basically that normally means a man's symptoms are more painful and noticable than a females, which encourages the man to seek medical help sooner. In some cases treatment might not be soon enough to prevent transmission to others.
Among women, gonococcal infections might not produce recognizable symptoms until complications (e.g., PID) have occurred. PID can result in tubal scarring that can lead to infertility or ectopic pregnancy. This means female gonorrhea symptoms can be less noticable than a mans. It is advisable that you get regular check ups if you are active sexually.

| How do you get Gonorrhea? | ||
Gonorrhea is usually spread through contact with the penis, vagina, mouth, or anus. Ejaculation does not have to occur for gonorrhea to be transmitted or acquired. Gonorrhea can also be spread from mother to baby during delivery.
Once treated, it is possible to become infected again if you have sexual contact with a person infected with gonorrhea.

| Gonorrhea Symptoms | ||
Some men with gonorrhea may have no symptoms at all. However, many men will have signs or symptoms that appear two to five days after infection; symptoms can take as long as 30 days to appear. Symptoms and signs include a burning/stinging feeling when urinating, or a white, yellow, or green discharge from the penis. This is often accompaned by a strong smell from the penis. Sometimes men with gonorrhea get painful or swollen testicles, but this is not so common.
In women, the symptoms of gonorrhea are often mild, but many women who are infected have no symptoms. That is why it is always advisable to get a regular check up, especially if you are sexually active. Even when a woman has symptoms, they can be so non-specific as to be mistaken for a bladder or vaginal infection. The initial symptoms and signs in women include a painful or burning sensation when urinating, increased vaginal discharge, or vaginal bleeding between periods. Women with gonorrhea are at risk of developing serious complications from the infection, regardless of the presence or severity of symptoms.
Symptoms of rectal infection in both men and women may include discharge, anal itching, soreness, bleeding, or painful bowel movements. Rectal infection also may cause no symptoms. Infections in the throat may cause a sore throat, but usually causes no symptoms.

| Gonorrhea Treatment | ||
Now the good news! In most cases treatment for uncomplicated Gonorrhea is quick and simple. We follow the latest treatment guidelines from the CDC in America.
As of late 2010 the CDC is recommending a DUAL THERAPY option, mainly because Gonorrhea is becoming resistant to some types of antibiotics and also because many people who are infected with Gonorrhea are also infected with Chlamydia at the same time. Successful treatment is different for both std's. Read More from the CDC
