Can Gonorrhea Be Contracted Through Oral, Anal Or Vaginal Sexual Contact?

A few possible scenarios, but need you both to co-operate
Detailed Answer:
Hello sir and welcome.
Thank you for writing to us.
I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. Based on the given information I would like to put forward a few scenarios:
+How sure are you that your wife was not unfaithful? I mainly say this because, from your query you have not mentioned having any scabs on your penis before having sexual intercourse with your wife.
+Gonorrhea can spread through oral, anal or vaginal sexual contact. So is there any chance you came in contact with someone else's saliva? Or bodily fluids?
+If you can sit your wife down, just request her as a last favour to sit down and think if she could have in any way come in contact with anybody else's saliva, or wore some ones else's clothes, or tried some clothes on at a clothing store, or slept on some one else's pillow or sheets, etc.
Basically any form of contact with any body else? And the same goes to you?
There can be only two options sir, if either of you have come in contact with bodily fluid from anybody else (more likely to be your wife, because your symptoms appeared after sexual contact with her) or that she in fact was unfaithful to you.
Please sit her down, and discuss things. This is important and for the same of your future and your families, try to calm her down and sit her down and discuss things with her. Please also feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications sir, I am only here to help, and wish to provide you with whatever information and possibilities I can think of.
Best wishes.


What's even more frustrating is that the doctor reported it to the county and they contacted her and said there were only 8 cases in the entire county within the last year...
Possible to contract it from the motels, what about your wife's past?
Detailed Answer:
Hi sir.
It is indeed extremely rare, but not impossible. You could have contracted the infection from the motel sheets or other items that could have been recently used (as you might know, motels are not the best at hygiene).
But please also discuss the odds and possibilities of your wife contracting something from any such places or activities. I only wish for both of you to be happy and together.
Please do not hesitate to keep in touch.
Best wishes.


And finally, could the tests be accurate? But then again, while I wasn't tested just treated I did have the symptoms.
By past I meant any kind of non-sexual exposure as mentioned below
Detailed Answer:
Hello once again sir.
I understand she has been completely faithful to you, but may be I wasn't direct enough when I mentioned "your wife's past", what I really meant was: was there a chance that she tried on some one else's clothes, or visited a motel while travelling, or came in contact with some one's saliva, etc. These acts and others are non-sexual but can still at times result in the transmission of the infection.
I understand how you are in a predicament, but you and only you can speak to her and convince her about the whole thing. If you want, and can convince her to speak to me, I can explain a few scenarios to her as well. As I mentioned sir, I am always here to help.
But you need to let her know that marriage is no joke, and so you both need to work on it together and you need to make a few promises to her and never break them. But you need to talk to her.
Best wishes.
