Spotting the Signs: Common Symptoms of Gonorrhea in Men

Gonorrhea is a common sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacteria Neisseria gonorrhoeae. While gonorrhea can affect both men and women, the symptoms of the infection can differ between the two sexes.

What are the Symptoms of Gonorrhea in Men?

Most men with gonorrhea will experience symptoms within a few days of infection. However, some men may not experience any symptoms at all. Here are the most common symptoms of gonorrhea in men:

  • Pain or a burning sensation during urination
  • Increased frequency of urination
  • Pain or tenderness in the testicles
  • Discharge from the penis (white, yellow, or green in color)
  • Rectal pain, discharge, or bleeding (if the infection has spread to the rectum)

If left untreated, gonorrhea can lead to serious health problems, such as infertility, epididymitis (inflammation of the tube that carries sperm), and even infections in the blood or joints.

If you suspect that you may have gonorrhea, it is important to get tested as soon as possible. Nao Medical offers confidential and convenient STD testing services, including testing for gonorrhea.

Can gonorrhea in men be cured?

Yes, gonorrhea can be cured with antibiotics. However, it is important to complete the full course of medication to ensure that the infection is completely eradicated from your system. If left untreated or if the infection is not completely cured, it can lead to serious health problems.

What happens if gonorrhea in men is left untreated?

If left untreated, gonorrhea can lead to serious health problems, such as infertility, epididymitis (inflammation of the tube that carries sperm), and even infections in the blood or joints. It can also increase your risk of contracting other sexually transmitted infections.

How can I prevent gonorrhea?

The best way to prevent gonorrhea is to practice safe sex by using condoms or dental dams during sexual activity. It is also important to get tested regularly if you are sexually active, especially if you have multiple sexual partners or if you have recently had unprotected sex with a new partner.

Do I need to disclose my gonorrhea diagnosis to my sexual partners?

Yes, it is important to notify your sexual partners if you have been diagnosed with gonorrhea so that they can also get tested and treated. This will help prevent the spread of the infection to others and protect their health.
