urethra. At least half of the cases are caused by chlamydia and the cause of
the other half is unknown. |
| |
| Symptoms |
| Symptoms include pain during urination and a
discharge. |

| Transmission |
| You can get this disease through sexual intercourse. It
is most often transferred when the woman has chlamydia. |
| |
| Testing |
| The diagnosis is made by taking a smear of the discharge
and looking at it under a microscope, so the doctor can tell if you have the
disease or not. The doctor can also take a urine sample to determine
this. |
