Best Answer

Gonorrhea spreads through contact with the penis, vagina, mouth, or anus. It can be transmitted even without ejaculation. It is also possible for an infected woman to pass gonorrhea to a child at birth.

Unfortunately, it's not uncommon for a person to have gonorrhea without symptoms, or to pass on the infection before symptoms appear. The easiest way to protect yourself is to be sure you use a condom. It's also a good idea to get checked for sexually transmitted diseases every once in a while, even if you're not showing symptoms. There are confidential free clinics in most cities. After all, you don't want to get a reputation as someone who spreads STDs.

How people get gonorrhea?

Gonorrhea is caused by a bacteria spread through sexual contact, typically intercourse. It is an STD. Some form of sexual contact, skin to skin, is required to spread the infection.
