Get treatment for gonorrhea symptoms in a woman

Ben jij een vrouw en besmet met gonorroe? De kans dat jij gonorroe symptomen als vrouw krijgt, is minder groot dan bij mannen. Ongeveer 90% van de mannen die met gonorroe besmet zijn, krijgen klachten. Bij vrouwen is dit 40 tot 70%. De kans dat je symptomen ervaart is dus minder groot, maar daardoor is je besmetting niet minder ernstig. Juist als je klachten krijgt, dan weet je dat er iets aan de hand is. Bij geen symptomen, waan jij je gezond. Dit is ook een risico, want ondertussen kun jij anderen besmetten. Bovendien kun je alsnog later symptomen ontwikkelen, maar dan in een mate die ernstiger is en lastiger te behandelen.

What are the symptoms of gonorrhea in a woman?

Should you still be among the group of women who do experience certain symptoms with gonorrhea? You should consider the following symptoms of gonorrhea in a woman: a burning sensation when urinating or even a painful feeling and abnormal vaginal discharge or bleeding. This can also occur during or after sex. You need to do something about this, and it's best to contact OneDayClinic. If you leave gonorrhea untreated, you will develop serious symptoms, such as inflammation of the urethra, cervix, fallopian tubes and rectum. If you are infected through oral sex, you can also get inflammations in the throat. It doesn't happen often, but eventually this can lead to a lower abdominal infection, where you suffer a lot of pain and may even need surgery.
