      Hi Kim,

      Thanks for your question..

      Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease (STD). It’s caused by infection with the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae which tends to infect warm, moist areas of the body, including the:
      urethra, eyes, throat, vagina, anus etc.

      As you may already know, Gonorrhea passes from person to person through unprotected oral, anal, or vaginal sex.
