gonorrhea does not turn into HIV. It is an easily treated STD by taking antibiotics. However, (please take this next comment with a grain of salt) people who contract gonorrhea and other STDs are more at risk of contracting HIV, but only because they are having unprotected sex.

Gonorrhea CANNOT TURN into HIV. However, a person WITH gonorrhea is at a higher risk to catch HIV. You should read the following: http://www.cdc.gov/std/Gonorrhea/STDFact-gonorrhea.htm#complications
If you are really scared about having the test, talk to your Doctor. He/she may be able to soothe your fears. However, you should (as with anyone having unprotected sex) get the test.

Whoever told you that gonorrhea turns into HIV was wrong! You should get the test just to ease your mind & then you will know where you stand & you can have a happy life that is less stress-filled. Even if you test positive, it doesn't mean you're gonna die! Get the test ASAP!

Gonarrhea DOES NOT turn into hiv. Whoever told you that is an idiot.
Educate yourself. Don't listen to others.

Hi gonorrhea is NOT HIV and doesn't turn into it.Go get tested for HIV.By the way you can still go to college if you do have HIV which I don't think you do.

You should listen to what everyone else has said and also, you should educate yourself before ever having sex period. Since you have this misinformation now, I assume you are not educated at all. And use condoms dearie.
