Gonorrhea in Women
Complications of this STI in women are particularly concerning. If you do not treat this illness, it can result in a variety of other issues. One of these is PID- Pelvic Inflammatory Disease, which can cause severe chronic pain and damage to the reproductive organs and can sometimes lead to infertility. This illness can also scar the urethra, which can cause pain and difficulty while urinating. In both men and women, this disease can find its way into the bloodstream and can lead to more serious complications. These can include damage to the heart valve and spinal chord.
