Gonorrhoea Screening & Tests
Gonorrhoea is caused by bacteria that infect your urethra, cervix, rectum, mouth and throat. Symptoms can appear one to 14 days after you become infected, or not until many months later when the infection has spread to other parts of your body.
In women, symptoms include a thick vaginal discharge, pain when passing urine, lower abdominal pain and bleeding between periods or heavier periods. However, around half of all women with gonorrhoea don't have any symptoms. Symptoms in men include a white, yellow or green discharge from the urethra and pain when passing urine. As with women, some men (about one in 10) may not have any symptoms.
If your throat is infected you probably won't have any symptoms. This is also true if your rectum is infected, but occasionally it can cause discharge, pain or discomfort.
As with chlamydia, gonorrhoea can cause serious health and reproductive problems if it isn't treated. Gonorrhoea can be treated with antibiotics
