Gonorrhea: how do you get it? Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) such as gonorrhea are caused by the bacteria Neisseria gonorrhoeae. The primary method of infection transmission is through sexual contact with an infected individual, whether through vaginal, anal, or oral sex. Through vaginal, anal, or oral sex, sexual contact with an infected person is the main way that the infection is spread. Sharing sex toys with someone who has gonorrhea is another way the infection spreads.
If you want to prioritize your sexual health and prevent the spread of gonorrhea, you must always have safe sexual relations. Use condoms whenever you have sex to reduce the risk of transmission. It is equally important to get STIs tested regularly. Gonorrhea needs to be identified as soon as possible to treat it promptly and prevent it from spreading.
Continue to be informed and responsible for your sexual health. Seek advice from medical specialists if you have any questions or worries.
