Chronic gonorrhoea in women and its treatment

Abstract


In conclusion it would appear that since chronic gonorrhoea in women is so intractable a disease the best method of dealing with it is to prevent its occurrence by immediate treatment of early cases. Examinations of men and women before marriage and the giving of certificates by venerealogists stating the freedom of the contracting parties from gonorrhoea would also limit the number of innocent infections.
If women could be taught to assert themselves more wi regard to the irregularities of men, there might be les3 infection brought into homes after marriage. The stimulation of Public Opinion against the spread of the disease by education and propaganda is a helpful method of combating the dread disease. Prophylactic treatment for men may limit the incidence of the disease to some extent.
