What are the transmission routes of gonorrhea

The development of the cash society has indirectly led to the spread of many diseases, so we must increase awareness of gonorrhea, fully understand the transmission routes of gonorrhea, and avoid the possibility of gonorrhea more scientifically. In fact, the transmission routes of gonorrhea are relatively limited, mainly concentrated in the following types, and they are also easy to understand.

Gonorrhea is the abbreviation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae, which is an infectious disease that mainly causes purulent infection of the urinary and reproductive systems and discharges purulent secretions as the main symptoms. Gonorrhea is mainly transmitted through sexual intercourse and is more common in young and middle-aged people. Gonorrhea has a high incidence rate among sexually transmitted diseases in my country.

First-time gonorrhea often occurs in the urethra, which is called gonorrheal urethritis. When gonorrhea spreads further, it can also damage the reproductive system and other organs throughout the body, causing chronic inflammation of the urogenital system, leading to or. The main routes of transmission of gonorrhea are as follows:

Gonorrhea is transmitted through sexual contact: mainly through sexual intercourse or other sexual behaviors. Male gonorrhea is almost always caused by sexual contact, while female gonorrhea can also be directly transmitted through sexual intercourse or by other means. Gonorrhea patients are the source of infection, and sexual contact is the main way gonorrhea is transmitted. The transmission speed is fast and the infection rate is very high. The disease can occur 3-5 days after infection. The infected population is mainly young and middle-aged people.

Gonorrhea is transmitted through non-sexual contact (indirect transmission): This situation is rare, and it is mainly transmitted through contact with the patient's secretions containing gonorrhea or contaminated utensils, such as towels, foot cloths, foot basins, clothes and quilts stained with secretions, and even toilet seats. It can be transmitted especially to women (including young girls) because of their short urethra and reproductive tract, and they are very susceptible to infection.

When a newborn passes through the birth canal of a mother with gonorrhea, the eyes may also develop neonatal gonococcal ophthalmia. Pregnant women with gonorrhea may develop intra-amniotic infection, including fetal infection.

Gonorrhea in adults, especially men, is sexually transmitted. At present, secret prostitutes are the main source of infection in our country. Survey data show that among gonorrhea patients, the infection rate of one-time sexual intercourse between men and women is; the infection rate of both men and women is that men are easily transmitted to women.

The infection rate of male to female transmission in one sexual intercourse is , and the infection rate of female to male transmission is . The infection rate is proportional to the number of sexual intercourses. The infection rate during sexual intercourse is average between male and female patients.

This is the end of our introduction to the fact that sexual intercourse between men and women is the primary route of transmission of gonorrhea. We hope that this can serve as a warning to our male and female friends. In our daily lives, we must be careful not to engage in chaotic sexual behavior, so as to avoid the occurrence of sexually transmitted diseases and serious harm to our health.
