Background: Antibiotic sensitivity pattern of Neisseria gonorrhoae is changing frequently. Objective: The purpose of the present study was to see the antibiotic sensitivity pattern of Neisseria gonorrhoae isolated from women presented with cervicitis. Methodology: Result: N. gonorrhoeae were detected from 39(15.9%) cases. Among 39 positive cases of gonococcal cervicitis, 19 (48.71%) were detected in the age group of 21-30 years. 56.41 % were sensitive and 30.76 % were resistant to ceftriaxone. Similarly 51.28 % were sensitive and 23.07 % were resistant to cefuroxime; 23.07 % sensitive, 30.76 % moderately sensitive and 46.15 % resistant to ciprofloxacin. Conclusion: Gonococcal cervicitis is found in a high frequency rate with a reduced sensitivity to antibiotics especially ciprofloxacin, second an
