Gonorrhea Diagnostic Market Size, Share & Growth Report 2031

Report Description

The global gonorrhea diagnostics market size is anticipated to register a substantial CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the increasing number of various sexually transmitted diseases all around the world and the growing demand for rapid diagnosis tools.

Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by the virus, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, an inflammation of the mucous membrane surface. Both men and women are vulnerable to the virus. Furthermore, the infection thrives in the moist and warmth areas of the female reproductive track such as the cervix, uterus, and fallopian tube. However, many men and women do not have any gonorrhoea symptoms in majority of cases. When an infected person develops symptoms, they are often similar to those of another bacterial disorder, which further makes it difficult to distinguish between the two. However, some of the commonly occurred symptoms of the disease are penile and vaginal discharge, frequent urine discharge, burning feeling while peeing, and, less commonly enlarged testicles. Intercourse, as well as anal or oral sex, can spread the disease infection.
