Gonorrhoea

Gonorrhoea is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by bacteria. It can affect the genitals, rectum, or throat and is passed on through unprotected sex. Some people have no symptoms, but it can cause pain when peeing, unusual discharge, or discomfort in the lower abdomen. If left untreated, it can lead to serious health problems. Gonorrhoea is easily treated with antibiotics, so it’s important to get tested and start treatment quickly if needed.
Gonorrhoea is a bacterial sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae. It commonly affects the genitals, rectum, or throat, and can cause symptoms like pain when urinating, unusual discharge, or testicular and pelvic pain. Many people, however, show no symptoms.
Gonorrhoea is the second most common bacterial STI in the UK. Cases have been increasing, particularly among sexually active individuals under 25. Untreated infections can lead to serious complications like infertility or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID).
Gonorrhoea is transmitted through unprotected vaginal, anal, or oral sex with an infected person. It can also be spread through sharing sex toys. Using condoms correctly significantly lowers the risk of transmission.
Due to rising antibiotic resistance, gonorrhoea treatment typically involves an intramuscular injection of ceftriaxone, which is not suitable for remote prescribing. However, Press Pharmacy may provide oral antibiotic options for certain cases only where re-treatment is required or guided by previous lab results, following a full online assessment.
Antibiotics may cause mild side effects like stomach upset, nausea, or diarrhoea. More serious reactions are rare. It is essential to avoid sexual contact until you and your partner(s) have completed treatment and been cleared.
Press Pharmacy offers discreet, professional advice and follow-up treatment for gonorrhoea when appropriate. Our service is overseen by UK-registered prescribers who assess each case carefully, ensuring you receive safe, confidential care with fast delivery.
