2. The chance of gonorrhea
Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by bacteria. It can lead to symptoms that differ from non-infectious causes of vaginal discomfort and requires immediate medical attention.
Symptoms include:
- Unusual green or yellow vaginal discharge
- Painful urination
- Pelvic pain
Gonorrhea can also affect the throat, rectum, and eyes, so watch for unusual symptoms in these areas. If you suspect gonorrhea, visit a doctor or sexual health clinic immediately. Early treatment is essential to avoid complications.
