 Urethritis can result from infectious and noninfectious conditions. 
      Symptoms: discharge of mucopurulent or
      purulent material, dysuria, or urethral pruritis.  N. gonorrhoeae and C. trachomatis are clinically important infectious causes of urethritis. 
      If clinic-based diagnostic tools (Gram stain microscopy) are not available,
      patients should be treated for both gonorrhea and chlamydia.
