is it possible to still catch gonorrhea when you are using protection.

According to the Center for Disease Control, use of a condom REDUCES the risk of transmission of gonorrhea, but DOES NOT eliminate it, even if used properly. If you get it, the disease is highly treatable... but not getting it is even better!

You can greatly lower your risk of catching an STD by using a condom every time you have sex. Condoms are available for both men and women, but are most commonly worn by the man. A condom must be used properly every time. Keep in mind that STDs can still be spread, even if you use a condom, because a condom does not cover surrounding skin areas. But a condom definitely reduces your risk.

Not as long as the protection remains intact. Gonorrhea is an anaerobic organism. (Meaning it can not survive in an oxygen environment. Therefore it requires that body fluid, and disease, be swapped from partners in a non-air environment. If their is a condom involved, their can not be transmission, unless it breaks.

When you aren't married I extremely advocate by no means have anal intercourse together with her once more! Condoms somtimes break at the same time having intercourse, and some people capture their companions stds although their condums dont damage within.DONT TAKE THAT hazard! I consider oral sex is great, but I still think you must wait until marriage for sex.

If you don't seem to be married I particularly endorse NEVER have anal intercourse along with her once more! Condoms somtimes holiday even as having intercourse, and a few humans trap their companions stds although their condums dont holiday within.DONT TAKE THAT RISK! I believe oral intercourse is best, however I nonetheless believe you must wait till marriage for intercourse.

While more unlikely to get it, it is still possible. That is why no form of protection ever says it is 100% guaranteed.

If you are using protection then no (bear in mind that not all protection is 100%).

Gonorrhea is highly contageous! ANY contact with the penis, vagina, mouth or anus can spread the disease.
