What it is Filled
A common sexually transmitted infection caused by a bacterium, which can infect the genital tract, rectum and throat and, if untreated, lead to complications; the registry aliases name site-specific and complicated forms and the growing problem of antibiotic resistance. Gonorrhea is diagnosed by testing and treated with antibiotics, and it is a public-health topic. This entry gives general, factual information, and any personal situation should be directed to a qualified clinician or sexual-health service.
Why it exists Filled
