Gonorrhoea ( Neisseria gonorrhoeae)

Neisseria gonorrhoea is the second most common bacterial STI in the United Kingdom. Young people are most commonly infected, with current rates highest in males aged 20-24 years and females aged 16-19 years. The highest rates are found in London and predominantly urban areas. Gonococcal infection tends to be concentrated in core prevention groups. In the UK these include homosexual/bisexual men and black ethnic minority populations.
