Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae, primarily affecting the genital tract, rectum, and throat, often accompanied by symptoms like painful urination and discharge. In contrast, a urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection in any part of the urinary system, typically caused by bacteria like Escherichia coli, leading to symptoms such as frequent urination, burning sensation, and abdominal pain. While both conditions can cause similar urinary symptoms, their causes, transmission methods, and potential complications differ significantly. Treatment for gonorrhea often involves antibiotics, whereas UTIs are usually treated with different antibiotics based on the specific bacteria involved.

Chlamydia, gonorrhea, trichomoniasis, and genital herpes can all cause some of the same symptoms as UTI.
Gonorrhea is typically a reproductive tract infection, locating in the penis in the male and the vagina in the female. However, it is possible for gonorrhea to transit to the urinary tract in both genders due to the proximity of the urethra to the reproductive tract.
