However, the new strain is nowhere near as painful and only detectable by the discharge simultaneous with urination. This increases the chances [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The New Yorker discusses the connection between gonorrhea a.k.a. “the clap” and oral sex:“A driving factor behind the rise in gonorrhea infections, as well as the trend toward total antibiotic resistance, is our complacent attitude toward oral sex. Saliva contains enzymes that destroy gonorrhea, so kissing and cunnilingus don’t spread it. But fellatio, which brings [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From a once easily treatable infection, gonorrhoea has evolved into a challenging disease, which in future may become untreatable in certain circumstances. International spread of extensively drug-resistant gonococci would have severe public health implications. It seems clear that under the current treatment pressure from extended-spectrum cephalosporins, and owing to Neisseria gonorrhoeae&#8217;s remarkable evolutionary adaptability, further [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Gonorrhea is the second most commonly reported infectious disease in the U.S. Only one class of drugs, called cephalosporins—cefixime and ceftriaxone—is known to reliably treat it, and for several years resistance to cefixime has been rising. Some public-health officials predict that in five to eight years the superbug will be widespread. In the U.S., gonorrhea [...]]]></description>

Gonorrhea, a sexually transmitted disease that infects 700,000 Americans a year, already has become resistant to all but one class of antibiotics and could soon become untreatable, federal health officials warned.

On Thursday, officials with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are scheduled to release new treatment guidelines to slow the growth of antibiotic-resistant gonorrhea in the United States.

Klausner thinks this could mean more pelvic inflammatory disease, chronic pelvic pain, ectopic pregnancies and infertility in women. To the extent that gonorrhea amplifies HIV transmission, this could also mean an increase in HIV incidence in some populations. For now, Klausner echoes the CDC recommendation [...]]]></description>
