Is Frequency of Urination a Symptom of Gonorrhea?

Frequent urination is not considered a primary symptom of Gonorrhea, but it can occur in some cases. If you are experiencing frequent urination along with other symptoms of Gonorrhea, such as burning sensation while urinating and pain in the lower abdomen, it is important to see a doctor and get tested.¹ Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by the bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae, and is spread through unprotected sexual contact.² Early detection and treatment of Gonorrhea is important to prevent further complications such as pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility, and ectopic pregnancy- a condition when the fertilized egg grows in fallopian tube.^3,4
