Super gonorrhea is not more contagious or different symptomatically from other types of gonorrhea.The only difference is super gonorrhea symptoms won’t resolve after the typical course of treatment. Most women are asymptomatic&even when symptoms occur they are mild&non specific.

Cuban Drs in Kenya earn 882,000/month. Let that sink in. Almost 1m Are they doing anything special? No. Have they made any difference? No. No senior Kenyan Dr gets paid anything close to that. Can the CS Health promise to look into that?

In most cases,an abortion DOESN’T affect fertility&has no impact on other pregnancies. Its possible to become pregnant within 2weeks after an abortion.Use contraceptives or If you want to conceive again,consult your doctor for a better pregnancy outcome with reduced complications

Your healthcare provider can help you contact your recent and past sexual partners within 1 year as well. You just need to give them the contact details (a phone number is the preferred option) and let them do the rest.

@WhoTFissim It’s the trauma we are being constantly exposed to. Never knowing what is genuine, who to give a chance and how things will turn out. Chances are running out

@kuimashaah Most hospitals do offer both advice on contraception and provide contraceptives through their family planning(F.P)department. The healthcare providers will help you choose the best contraceptive for you based on your health status and preferences.1/2

Health CS Susan Nakhumicha said that there is no condom shortage in the country.There are 38million pieces of condoms which are sufficient quantities.The challenge she stated was that there is a lapse in terms of managing the process of condom requests from hospitals-county-Kemsa

@korisic Ukweli. Watu wako na multiple sexual partners na usipotumia condoms na a new partner unaweza kuwa at risk. It’s always safe kutumia condoms because sometimes huwezi jua kama partner wako ni faithful.

Yes there is the HPV test. Visual inspection of the cervix has reemerged as a screening tool for low resource settings,despite its limited specificity. Pap smear shouldn’t hurt but may feel uncomfortable when the speculum is inserted. You could experience light bleeding afterward
