Gonorrhoea

Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease that however, can be transmitted through sharing of sex toys and can also be transmitted "from mother to child during vaginal delivery." (Women's Health Zone, 2011) The work of Brooks (nd) states "People usually report symptoms 2-15 after exposure, although some people show no symptoms at all. Men are more likely to notice symptoms than are women. Males with asymptomatic urethritis are important reservoirs for transmission and are at increased risk for developing complications. If there are symptoms, both male and females usually have white/yellow discharge, dysuria, and irritation or

Like Chlamydia, Gonorrhea can also infect the genitals and throat (Friedman & Skancke, 2009). This sexually transmitted infection affects more than 800,000 women and men every year in the United States (Shoquist & Stafford, 2004). Although symptoms are uncommon, the symptoms often experienced include vomiting, pain in the genital area, unusually thick discharge, and the urge to urinate more than usual (Sutton, 2006). Gonorrhea can lead to infertility in both men and women, and during pregnancy can lead to premature labor and stillbirth (Shoquist & Stafford,

Gonorrhea is similar to chlamydia in that it does not usually have symptoms, and the ones that are displayed are similar to those of chlamydia. The symptoms in men are more obvious than those seen in women, who may not show symptoms until the bacteria has spread to cause infections in other reproductive organs. In both men and women, there is a chance of the bacteria reaching the bloodstream and causing heart inflammation and many another diseases. To treat gonorrhea, only cephalosporin drugs (a type of antibiotic) can be used because of gonorrhea’s developed resistance to penicillin, along with most other antibiotics. The case becomes different when patients have both chlamydia and gonorrhea and a different treatment plan has to be

Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted contamination that has been known not resulting to medieval times. The exact time when gonorrhea began can't be found. Most auspicious records of the pain are found from 1611 when the English parliament embraced a law to guarantee that the spread of the sullying is diminished and controlled. This demonstrates the measure of the general wellbeing issue this spoiling had acted then. Regardless, and, in light of present circumstances the clarification behind the illness was unknown.This was trailed by a relative law in 1256 in France amidst the standard of Louis IX. The side effects of the spoiling were watched when the crusaders lay attack of Acre. After the Pope Boniface secularized the showing of pharmaceutical,

40% of syphilis (all stages), 3% of gonorrhea, and more than 1% of chlamydia cases where either previously documented as HIV co-infected or were concurrently diagnosed

My article if from the Washington Post titled “Gonorrhea Is More Dangerous Than Ever As Resistance To Antibiotics Grows,” written by Lena Sun. According to the article, Neisseria Gonorrhoeae is a drug-resistant diplococcal (coffee bean-shaped) bacteria, which causes gonorrhea and is the second most common infectious disease in the United States. This bacteria is only found after sexual contact with an infected person after the bacteria attach to the nonciliated epithelial cells of the fallopian tube, they are surrounded by the microvilli that draw them to the surface of the mucosal cell. The types of sexual or direct contact that it can be transmitted by include oral, anal and vaginal sex.

According to the American Sexual Health Association, by 25 every 1 out of 2 sexually active persons will have contracted some form of STD. That's half of sexually active people.

Gonorrhea is a STD found in the genitals, rectum or throat. Gonorrhea is commonly called the clap. The clap is commonly found in boys and girls around the age 15-24. The clap in men have the symptoms of; swollen testicles, hurts to pee, and discolored discharge. For females is; hurts to urinate, bleeding between periods, and increased discharge during periods. If you have it in the rectum, it hurts to poop. Gonorrhea can only be passed on through sex, but can also be passed on through mother to child. Gonorrhea can be cured within 7

In conclusion, discussion of the three sexual transmitted infections, it often makes you wonder, how this disease where ever formed from biblical times until the present

Neisseria gonorrhoeae (N. gonorrhoeae) is a species of gram-negative diplococcic bacteria that cause the sexually transmitted disease gonorrhea (Willey 906). N. gonorrhoeae has developed resistance to many of the antibiotics that have been used to treat gonorrhea, including sulfanilamide, penicillins, tetracycline, and fluoroquinolones. Fluoroquinolones, such as ciprofloxacin, were widely used to treat gonorrhea after N. gonorrhoeae developed resistance to sulfanilamide, penicillins, and tetracycline (Saunders). The mechanisms of antibiotic resistance for fluoroquinolones (i.e. ciprofloxacin) in N. gonorrhoeae are well studied and will be the focus of this paper.

“In examining disease, we gain wisdom about anatomy and physiology and biology” (Sacks 1943). Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), which can be bacterial, pathogenic or viral, are infections that can be transmitted through sexual contact with an infected individual. These are also termed sexually transmitted infections or STIs. These diseases affect many American’s lives today. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) assesses that every year more than 700,000 individuals in the United States will get another gonorrheal disease. One of these diseases happens to be Gonorrhea. Gonorrhea, a common disease, typically known in the streets as: Clap, Dose, Jack, Strain, Gleet and Drip, is a bacterial STD. It is caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae, also called gonococcus.

In the USA, an estimated 820,000 new Neisseria Gonorrhea infections occur each year. Gonorrhea is the second most commonly reported communicable disease in the USA. Less than half of them reported to the CDC. CDC stands for Center for Disease Control. CDC is one of the major operating components of the department of health and human services. Gonorrhea is caused by a bacteria “Neisseria Gonorrhoeae”. Neisseria Gonorrhoeae Is spread during vaginal, anal, or oral sex with an infected partner. Neisseria Gonorrhoeae is a bacteria that can grow and multiply easily in mucus membranes of the body. Can also grow in the warm moist areas of the reproductive tract, including the cervix (opening of the womb), uterus (womb), and fallopian tubes (egg canals) in women, and in the urethra

Bacteria are living, they are not plants nor are they animals but they are a third species all together. Bacteria a prokaryotes, this is an individual cell that doesn’t contain a nucleus. A single bacteria is about the size of a single cell although most of the time there are million of them together as they multiply very quickly. Unlike Bacteria Viruses are non living and hide themselves in cells of living organisms to replicate themselves. Most kinds of viruses are far too small to be seen under a light microscope. Viruses can infect all types of living organisms (plants, animals, etc.). Fungi are very close to plants, compared to viruses and bacteria fungi is a Eukaryote. Fungi, like plants, is a multicellular organism but the key difference

Regarding the value of Ro in STI, the core group plays a significant role in the high rate of Ro as well as highly contributes to the persistence of infection. Although encompassing a small proportion of people, the core group is frequently infected and transmits the disease

Neisseria gonorrhoeae is the obligate human pathogen that causes the sexually transmitted disease (STD) gonorrhea. This Gram-negative diplococci/gonococci does not infect other animals or experimental animals and does not survive freely in the environment. The gonococcal infection occurs in the upper or lower tract, pharynx, ophthalmic area, rectum, and bloodstream. During the 1980’s gonorrhea was also referred to as “the clap” when public awareness was quite minimal. This was one of the venereal diseases prostitutes hoped to contract since it resulted in infertility by pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). As documentation, diagnostic testing, and public awareness improved, there has been a decline
