It is a bacteria called Neisseria gonorrhoea, or gonococcus that causes gonorrhoea. A slang term that is sometimes used to describe gonorrhoea is “the clap.” It is passed through unprotected vaginal, anal and oral sex and through using unwashed sex toys that have not been covered with a condom. It is not passed through kissing, toilet seats, swimming pools or sharing crockery and so on.

explained
What is gonorrhoea?
It is a bacteria called Neisseria gonorrhoea, or gonococcus that causes gonorrhoea.
A slang term that is sometimes used to describe gonorrhoea is “the clap.” It is passed
through unprotected vaginal, anal and oral sex and through using unwashed sex toys
that have not been covered with a condom. It is not passed through kissing, toilet
seats, swimming pools or sharing crockery and so on. [1,2]
2. What are the symptoms?
Around half of women and 1 in 10 men have no symptoms. Men who experience
symptoms typically have an unusual discharge from the tip of the penis, pain when
urinating and sometimes testicle pain. Women may experience an unusual discharge,
pain when urinating, lower abdominal pain and, rarely, bleeding between periods.
[1,2]
What is the treatment?
You no longer have to visit a GP to obtain gonorrhoea 2nd
line treatment. Second
line treatment is in the form of a single dose of 2 antibiotics called Azithromycin and
Cefixime. This treatment also clears chlamydia and can be bought online after
.having been positively tested for gonorrhoea or had sexual contact with someone
who has been positively tested.
How can you obtain treatment?
Fortunately, it is now possible to buy gonorrhoea treatment from a UK registered
online pharmacy. Webmed is one such pharmacy and it is registered and regulated
by the General Pharmaceutical Council.
If you think you may have gonorrhoea, you can order an STI test kit online, and once
you have sent it off, you will have the results within 2-3 days. If you have
gonorrhoea, you can complete a simple online medical questionnaire and a registered
doctor will issue a prescription for Azithromycin and Cefixime.
If you buy gonorrhoea treatment online, you can receive it the next working day
within a one-hour time slot or at a designated pick-up point.
3. What happens after the treatment?
It is important that anyone taking gonorrhoea treatment should not have sex for 7
days after taking the treatment. They should then take a further “test of cure” two
weeks after treatment.
