    Gonorrhea is a bacterium that can grow in the mouth, throat, eyes, and anus (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,2012). This bacteria can also harvest itself in the reproductive tract of women and in the urethra of both women and men it is transmitted through sexual contact though the vagina, anus, and mouth. This may also be passed to an infant born to an infected mother (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,2012). In 2009-2010 the rate of Gonorrhea infection increased 1.4% amongst adolescents 15 – 19 (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,2012). The rate of infection was highest among African American females age 15-19 which was 20.5 times higher than European Americans (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,2012). Between adolescent boys and adolescent girls adolescent boys 15-19 had the second highest rate of Gonorrhea infection. Gonorrhea is also a treatable infection and can be treated with antibiotics mostly given orally but due to the increasing cases of antibiotic resistant gonorrhea new treatment guidelines are rigorous in treating newly infected individuals.( Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.,2012).
