ALERT
“Facing the THREAT of UNTREATABLE Gonorrhea”
Gonorrhea is a bacterial infection of the genital tract of females or urethra of males and or rectums of either male or females. It causes discomfort, odor, and discharge and can ultimately lead to chronic pelvic pain, infertility, and even blindness. This infection is passed through casual unprotected vaginal or anal intercourse.
In the past it has been easily treated with antibiotics but is now becoming very resistant to standard antibiotics. Currently there is only one injectable medication left that will treat this infection. This dramatic change has resulted from reckless sexual behavior and overtreatment of this organism. Soon it may become untreatable and an individual may have to live with the consequences of such an offensive bacteria.
Please consider your sexual behavior and take precautions as it may be your last pleasurable sexual encounter. Free condoms are available at the LSSU Health Center. For a consultation or questions, please contact the Health Center 635-2110.
More information on Gonorrhea and other sexually transmitted diseases can be found at www.CDC.gov
