1. gonorrhoea

   Gonorrhoea is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the bacteria Neisseria gonorrhoeae. It typically affects the genitals, rectum and throat, causing symptoms such as pain during urination and discharge from the vagina or penis. However, it can also be asymptomatic, particularly in women. Without treatment, it can lead to serious and permanent health problems such as pelvic inflammatory disease in women and reduced fertility in both sexes. Gonorrhoea can be prevented by using protective methods like condoms during sexual activity and can be treated with antibiotics.
