What are the several ways of transmission of gonorrhea? Can Eliminating Bad Sexual Activities Prevent Gonorrhea
Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease characterized by infection caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae (referred to as Neisseria gonorrhoeae). It is an ancient and common sexually transmitted disease. In recent years, the incidence rate of sexually transmitted diseases ranks first in China. The incidence of sexually transmitted diseases in China is also increasing year by year. With the increasing number of sexually transmitted disease patients, personal protection against sexually transmitted diseases is particularly important. In the out-patient clinic for sexually transmitted diseases, it is often found that many patients do not understand the Pathogen transmission and prevention methods of sexually transmitted diseases, so that some people do not know where the disease comes from after suffering from sexually transmitted diseases; It is also very important to understand the Pathogen transmission and preventive measures of sexually transmitted diseases because they do not understand the prevention methods, which makes it difficult for their spouses and children to escape. Some families even break up as a result, causing instability in the family and society.
There are two ways of transmission of gonorrhea
How can sexually transmitted diseases be transmitted? Many people know the great harm of sexually transmitted diseases and are afraid of contracting them, but they cannot control their lower body. Some men like to cheat on young women outside, do not pay attention to reproductive health, and have sex with their wives at home, which can easily lead to sexually transmitted diseases. Let's understand how gonorrhea is transmitted!
Gonorrhea is a purulent infection of the Genitourinary system caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Under certain conditions, Neisseria gonorrhoeae can also infect the eyes, pharynx, rectum, and pelvis, and individual systemic infections occur. The incubation period is generally 2-10 days, with an average of 3-5 days. Urethritis is common in men, with frequent urination, urgency of urination, pain in urination, redness, swelling and itching of the urethral orifice, and purulent discharge. Cervicitis is common in women, which is characterized by an increase in Vaginal discharge (leucorrhea) and yellowing, but many infected people have no conscious symptoms.
1. Transmission through sexual contact: mainly through sexual intercourse or other sexual behavior. Male gonorrhea is almost always caused by sexual contact, while female gonorrhea can also be directly infected through sexual intercourse or through other means. Gonorrhea patients are the source of infection, and sexual contact is the main mode of transmission of gonorrhea. The transmission speed is fast, and the infection rate is very high. After infection, the disease can onset within 3-5 days. Young adult are the center of infection.
2. Non sexual contact infection (indirect infection): this situation is rare, mainly contacting patients with secretions containing gonococcal Diplococcus and contaminated tools, such as towels with secretions, foot basins of foot cloth, clothes, and even the toilet ring of the toilet. Especially for women (including young women), the urethra and reproductive tract are short and easy to be infected. When a newborn passes through the birth canal of a mother with gonorrhea, the eyes can also cause neonatal gonococcal ophthalmia. Pregnant women with gonorrhea can cause amniotic cavity infections, including fetal infections.
