Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae (hereinafter referred to as Neisseria gonorrhoeae), mainly manifested as purulent infections of the urinary and reproductive systems. This is an ancient and common sexually transmitted disease. In recent years, the incidence rate ranks first among sexually transmitted diseases in China. The incidence rate of sexually transmitted diseases in China is also increasing year by year. With the increase in the number of patients with sexually transmitted diseases, personal protection for sexually transmitted diseases is particularly important. In sex clinics, it is often found that many patients are not familiar with methods of sexual transmission and prevention, leading to some people not knowing about methods of sexual transmission and prevention measures.
There are two ways of gonorrhea infection
How are sexually transmitted diseases transmitted? Although many people know the great harm of sexually transmitted diseases and are afraid of contracting them, they simply cannot control their lower body. Some men like to have an affair with their little sister outside and do not pay attention to reproductive health. They have sexual intercourse with their wives at home, so they are easily infected with sexually transmitted diseases. Let's understand how gonorrhea is infected!
Gonorrhea is a purulent infection of the urinary and reproductive systems caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Under certain conditions, Neisseria gonorrhoeae can also infect the eyes, pharynx, rectum, pelvic cavity, and individual systemic infections. The incubation period is generally 2-10 days, with an average of 3-5 days. Common male urethritis, such as frequent urination, urgency, painful urination, urethral lipstick, itching, and purulent discharge. Cervicitis is is common in women, characterized by an increase in vaginal discharge (vaginal discharge) and yellowing, but many infected individuals do not have any conscious symptoms.
1. Infection through sexual contact: mainly through sexual intercourse or other sexual behavior. Almost all male gonorrhea is caused by sexual contact, and female gonorrhea can also be transmitted through direct sexual transmission or other means. Gonorrhea patients are the source of infection, and sexual contact is the main mode of transmission of gonorrhea. The transmission speed is fast, the infection rate is high, and it can occur within 3-5 days after infection. The main infected individuals are middle-aged and young people.
2. Non sexual contact infection (indirect infection): This situation is relatively rare, mainly due to the presence of gonococcal secretions or contaminated equipment such as towels, foot cloths, blankets, and even toilet loops in patients. Especially in women (including young children), due to the short urethra and reproductive tract, it is easy to be infected. When a newborn passes through the birth canal of a mother with gonorrhea, the eyes can also cause gonococcal ophthalmia in the newborn. Pregnant women with gonorrhea can cause amniotic cavity infections, including fetal infections.
