It is fairly common for gonorrhea to cause no symptoms, especially in women. The incubation period-the time from exposure to the bacteria until symptoms develop-is usually 2 to 5 days, but sometimes symptoms may not develop for up to 30 days.
Gonorrhea may not cause symptoms until the infection has spread to other areas of the body. See the What Happens section of this topic.
Symptoms in women
In women, the early symptoms are sometimes so mild that they are mistaken for a bladder infection or vaginal infection.
Symptoms may include:
Painful or frequent urination.
Anal itching, pain, bleeding, or discharge.
Abnormal vaginal discharge.
Abnormal vaginal bleeding during or after sex or between periods.
Genital itching.
Irregular menstrual bleeding.
Lower abdominal pain.
Fever and general tiredness.
Swollen and painful glands at the opening of the vagina (Bartholin glands).
Painful sexual intercourse.
Sore throat (rare).
Pinkeye (conjuctivitis) (rare).
Symptoms in men
In men, symptoms are usually obvious enough that they will cause a man to seek medical treatment before complications occur. But some men have mild or no symptoms and can unknowingly transmit gonorrhea infections to their sex partners. Symptoms may include:
Abnormal discharge from the penis (clear or milky at first, and then yellow, creamy, and excessive, sometimes blood-tinged).
Painful or frequent urination.
Anal itching, pain, bleeding, or discharge.
Sore throat (rare).
Pinkeye (conjuctivitis) (rare).
Symptoms of gonorrhea that has spread to sites other than the genitals (disseminated gonococcal infection) include:
Rash.
Joint pain or arthritis
Inflamed tendons.
