Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae. The symptoms of gonorrhea can vary between men and women, and some individuals may not experience any symptoms at all. However, common signs and symptoms of gonorrhea may include:
1. In men:
- Pain or burning sensation when urinating
- White, yellow, or green discharge from the penis
- Swollen or painful testicles
2. In women:
- Pain or burning sensation when urinating
- Increased vaginal discharge
- Vaginal bleeding between periods
- Painful intercourse
- Abdominal or pelvic pain
3. In both men and women:
- Rectal pain, discharge, or bleeding
- Sore throat (if the infection is transmitted through oral sex)
- Conjunctivitis (if the infection is transmitted through contact with infected genital fluids)
It is important to note that some individuals may not experience any symptoms at all, which can lead to the infection being unknowingly transmitted to sexual partners. If left untreated, gonorrhea can lead to serious complications such as pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility, and an increased risk of contracting other sexually transmitted infections.
If you suspect you may have gonorrhea or have been exposed to the infection, it is important to seek medical attention for testing and treatment. Gonorrhea can be easily treated with antibiotics, but early detection and treatment are crucial to prevent complications and further transmission of the infection.
