==Overview==
'''Gonorrhea''' ('''gonorrhoea''' in British English) is amongst the most common [[sexually transmitted disease]]s in the world and is caused by [[Gram-negative]] [[Bacteria|bacterium]] ''[[Neisseria gonorrheae]]''. The term comes from Ancient Greek γονόρροια (''gonórrhoia''), literally "flow of seed"; in ancient times it was incorrectly believed that the [[pus]] discharge associated with the disease contained semen.<ref>[http://www.yourdictionary.com/ahd/g/g0191000.html Definition of the term gonorrhea]</ref>
