This wrong mindset comes up from the point of view that it will decrease the possibility of having pregnancy. In fact, it cannot be considered as a safe one since you may still get infected with various sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV, chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, genital herpes and others. In term, oral gonorrhea is also called as pharyngeal gonorrhea. The names derived from the definition that this infection attacking the pharynx with gram-negative coccal-shaped bacteria names Neisseria gonorrhea.

Those who cannot be cured by themselves will have disseminated gonorrhea or the disease spreading throughout the body.

Oral gonorrhea, does it possible to be transferred through kissing?

Patient of this disease often do not transmit the disease to other even though it may still possible to happen. Kissing itself cannot transmit the bacteria since it is not infecting the tongue or mouth. The infection transmission is only possible if the bacteria that contain inside the pharynx transmitted to other object by direct contact such as sex toys, finger or genital.

Evaluation and treatment together with partner for about 60 days is also recommended for better treatment. Unluckily, some of bacteria strain resistant of some antibiotics then some heath practitioner will give one or more antibiotics to provide more effective result in dealing with oral gonorrhea symptom.

New Post has been published on http://chlamydiaguard.com/gonorrhea-in-throat-mouth-eyes-faq/

Gonorrhea in Throat, Mouth, Eyes, FAQ

Gonorrhea in throat, mouth, eyes often called as oral gonorrhea. Gonorrhea in general itself mean as a sexually transmitted disease that resulting from bacterial infection through oral, anal or vaginal sex with people who has gonorrhea. The bacteria that caused this type of STD is bacteria Neisseria gonorrhea. Bacteria aimed for mucous membranes which are moist, soft tissue that is not covered by outer layer of skin.

As STD, Gonorrhea is one of the most likely to spread beside Chlamydia. However, there are still a lot of question regarding gonorrhea that commonly asked by people around the world. In this article, we are going to discuss and provide detail answer to make people easier in understanding the term of gonorrhea. The frequently asked questions are as follow:

Gonorrhea in throat, mouth, eyes, can you get it from kissing?

Generally, the bacteria gonorrhea spread through semen and vaginal fluid. However, the transmission is not depends on the ejaculation. Based on this fact, having oral sex with someone infected throat and mouth will result gonorrhea infection. In addition, anyone can get gonorrhea even though they have been getting diagnose or treated with Gonorrhea before. Women that is pregnant also possible to pass Gonorrhea infection to their baby during giving birth process.

Risk of having pelvic inflammatory disease, permanent damage of reproductive system, infertility, ectopic pregnancy and premature birth is also high.

In men, if gonorrhea left untreated then fever and pain in penis area may happen. Besides that, infertility is also the common risk. Other serious health hazards that may experience are epididymitis, testicle infection, proctitis, rectum inflammation and prostate gland infection.

Gonorrhea in Throat, Silent Killer

New Post has been published on http://chlamydiaguard.com/gonorrhea-in-throat-silent-killer/

Gonorrhea in Throat, Silent Killer

Gonorrhea in throat may not as popular as gonorrhea in genital area. However, this kind of disease is also deadly if left untreated properly. In fact, there are billions of bacteria inside human throat. Most of the bacteria caused no threat toward human health. However, one species of bacteria become more common and benign. It is called as Gonorrhea. Gonorrhea itself become an epidemic since it is drug-resistant.

Gonorrhea in throat, spreading epidemic

The epidemic of throat gonorrhea itself already arise for years and reported to happen in more than 50 countries all over the world. The data find out that epidemic is spreading wider because of certain mode of transmission called oral sex. This case possible to happen when someone who has gonorrhea in the throat infect their partner through oral sex. It is even called as silent killer since this type of disease is so hard to detect and treat.

The threat of gonorrhea epidemic stay strong since there is no proven antibiotic to handle it. Until now on, this kind of disease still drug resistant. This disease is even becoming resistant with any kind of standard treatment for bacteria attack. Here is the scheme, when human body exposed with antibiotics for ear infection, sore throat and other illness then the bacteria that live in throat naturally will be exposed. When time goes by, this bacteria will resistance to the drugs.

This process is harmless until dangerous bacteria formed. When plasmid or small circular DNA molecules with bacterium genetic material formed separated from chromosomes. This plasmid can be transferred easily from one bacterial species to another which is close by. If the plasmid contain drug resistant gene then the gonorrhea bacteria will acquire this capacity. Data showed that around 30 % of gonorrhea infection will have ability to resistant with at least one drug.

Gonorrhea in throat data infection

Each year, gonorrhea infecting around 78 million of people around the world. The number still arise nowadays. This may causing by the decreasing of condom usage and low detection rate level. The drug resistant of gonorrhea bacteria is noted in China, India, Indonesia, United States, Canada and some parts of South America. Gonorrhea in throat becomes harder to detect since swabs test often do not gain enough sample of bacteria.

Even when this type of gonorrhea successfully detected but still difficult to be threat. Antibiotic as common bacterial infection remedy usually delivered through the bloodstream. This treatment method become inefficient since there is only few blood vessel in the throat. It makes the antibiotic treatment cannot be maximum absorbed to cure the disease.

Gonorrhea in throat effect

If gonorrhea untreated properly then it may spread into genital area. When it reach genital area then it will create such problem in men which is called as testicular and pelvic pain. It will causing more harm toward women since it can lead into pelvic inflammatory disease, ectopic pregnancy and even infertility. What makes it become silent killer is the ability of bacteria to adapt quickly. Nowadays, the common medication will be an injection of extended spectrum of cephalosporin that paired with oral azithromycin.

The phenomena of resistant throat gonorrhea toward antibiotic and treatment called as super gonorrhea. Until now on, super gonorrhea case reported to also happen in Japan, Spain and France. It may cured but need some out of standard medication to give. Unluckily, when you are taking this treatment method then you will have to make your own measurement of the dose. On the contrary, you may also build the bacteria resistance to it when you are giving it up to treat gonorrhea in throat.

Unluckily, the symptom of this disease usually do not shown so that most of patient do not know that they are already infected. Recent research in Spain is even found out that this disease is damaging the male sperm quality.

The DNA of men with chlamydia is fragmented three times higher than ordinary healthy men. Men that infected with chlamydia often has lower sperm amount. Even the left sperm will have defective shapes in a higher number of them. The last sperm still have to fight to swim well since they have poor motility. Luckily, this kind of sperm problem can be maneged with antibiotic medication. Some research found that medicated male will have around 30 % and mor improvement on their sperm condition.

In the UK itself, people in aged around 18 up to 25 carry bacteria that becoming the main cause of chlamydia infection. Most of them do not aware of the bacteria presence until it is becoming too late. It is simply because most of us think that chlamydia may only resulting female infertility. When they already have difficulties to become fertile then they just start to get some medical examination on chlamydia infection possibility.

When men DNA get damage then the risk of getting cancer becomes higher. It is simply because the pathogen causing mutation in host cell DNA. Chlamydia trachomatis is one of most common sexually transmitted disease that infect more than 90 million people around the world every year. The growth of chlamydia infection commonly get difficult to detect since it may go assymptomatic and persist for years.

Once you get infected with chlamydia then the pathogen will change your cell to make it their home. Your cell will be their host and changing to suit with the pathogen growth and proliferation. Finally, chlamydia will causing a long lasting genetic damage to its host cell. DNA is not only gets damaged but also have wrong response. DNA cannot be repaired since the needed key protein to do repairing process cannot reach the damaging one.

The damage caused by chlamydia bacteria pretty similar with the one that lead into cancer disease. Once healthy cell get infected then the normal and healthy cell cannot be functioned normal. The replication of healthy cell cannot be done and the risk of getting cancer will be higher. Even though it cannot be firmly define that chlamydia leads into cancer but we have to at least being more aware because of the similarity of sign and symptom.

Chlamydia and male fertility effect, how it happen

Chlamydia trachomatis bacterial will infect the urethra and affect male reproductive organs, eye and joints. Usually, the patient will have some skin problem such as rash on penis area and joint pain.  Most of chlamydia patient get this disease by having some unprotected sex or having multiple partner.  Even though this disease commonly showing no symptom but some common sign is also occur such as :

-sting or burning sensation while urinating

-slight discharge from male genital organ

-swollen testicle and scrotum because of the bacteria passing by

Usually, patient with chlamydia will be treated with antibiotics such as azithromycin, erythromycin and tetracycline. Besides that, it will be even better if your partner can be treated along with you to make sure that both of you get the best treatment for chlamydia and male fertility.
