Advice On Chlamydia And Gonorrhea?
Mar 21, 2016
I have a girlfriend, about a month ago I had sex outside my relationship with an escort. The condom broke. I was worried about chlamydia and gonorrhea immediately. Although I never got any kind of burning sensation or coloured discharge.
few days after the encounter I saw my GP and asked him for treatment, without testing. A positive test result cold potentially have devastating effect and word would get out believe it or not. So the doctor gave me a course of azithromycin for 5 days along with a course of doxycycline for a week.
Two weeks after that I found our that the medicine he gave me does not cure gonorrhea only chlamydia. Also at the same time I was told by my girlfriend that she thinks she has a yeast infection. to be on the safe side I treated her and myself again with cefixime 400 for 1 week and 1 gram of azithromycin on the first day followed by 500mg the second day.
We are now a week on from that treatment, and I still have doubts about myself. My girlfriend's "yeast infection" has cleared up almost completely. But for me I have a weird feeling in my penis, almost like a slight itchiness inside. Also I feel as if there is always a drop left that I need to squeeze out, and when I do squeeze it I get the teeniest drop of clear fluid that comes out, also my testicles feel itchy (not sure if this is related). At first I just thought it was my mind overthinking and me worrying that was doing this... but now I'm quite sure that things are not normal
I dont want this to ruin our relationship as we have two children together, and I need any treatment to happen in secret. I can get my hands on any medication that is required quite easily.
1- What do I do about myself? Is there any additional meds I need to take? Do I need the intramusclar injection of Ceftriaxone??
2- Do I need to do anything about my girlfriend? especially since I cant tell her what has happened for the sake of our kids!! Is she fine if she is symptom free? Could she be cured with the course of antibiotics I gave her? Please note she also took anti fungal meds at the same time.
Would really appreciate any advice I could get.

Has anyone here ever gotten positive gonorrhea after unprotected oral sex ?
There seems to be conflicting information. For chlamydia and trichomoniasis it is said that these bacteria do not survive in mouth. Gonorrhea affects the back of throat and can be acquired more easily with deep-throat only.
So my question is , has anyone here caught gonorrhea from oral exposure only ?

I had unprotected sex towards the end of February (No symptoms) but decided to get checked anyway. 10 days after possible infection, I had a test for HIV, Syphilis, Chlamydia and Gonorrhea - all tests came back negative. The doctor advised me to come back at the 1 month period since possible infection as the HIV test may not be 100% accurate.
I went back 1 month after possible infection and only tested for Syphilis and HIV - these came back negative.
The morning my results came back (In the UK they just text the results to you) I noticed some semen like discharge from my penis - thought nothing of it, assuming it was just a wet dream type scenario.
This discharge continued for about a week when I started to get a bit suspicious so I made an appointment at an STD clinic. In the days leading up to the appointment the discharge started to turn to a yellow/green puss type colour.
6-7 weeks after possible infection I went back for a 3rd time and explained my discharge symptom (only symptom!). The doctor took a swab test and told me immediately that I had some kind of infection, the only way to know for sure what it was, was to do another chlamydia and gonorrhea test. She only prescribed me a 7 day course of Doxycycline.
Two days after taking the medication I had swelling in the veins and tubes surrounding my testicles, but no swelling/pain in the testicles themselves. I was advised by 111 (NHS helpline) to go to A&E immediately, they said it was most likely a symptom of chlamydia and to continue taking the medication.
Now (Sunday) I finished the course of Doxycycline, discharge seems to have disappeared but the swelling in my scrotum is still present.
I got my results back and I tested negative AGAIN for chlamydia and gonorrhea...
I have no idea what to do now.. did I get flase negatives? Is it something else entirely? Anyone know what I should do?

I keep on urinating and I have some random pains in my pubic area, hips, testicles. The pain is very mild, like just pushing your thumb on your hipbone.
I keep on urinating, especially after drinking to glasses of water. In less than five minutes I have the urge to urinate. No pain and no discharge but my ejaculate is watery.
I also have this sore throat, my throat feels rough when I swallow on nothing but it doesn't hurt when I swallow food.
Is it possible that I got this from a handjob I got from a prostitute more than a week ago?

I was recently diagnosed with Gonorrhea, the doctor gave me antibiotics. I was also got tested for HIV and the result was negative. But right now, I am terrified because CDC links gonorrhea and hiv co-infection. I don't exactly when I got the gonorrhea, but I believe maybe within 2 months only, and I got treated. My question is, was there a chance that I might have been exposed to HIV as well? assuming the person who gave me gonorrhea was also co-infected with HIV? I am very terrified now as the negative result I got from HIV was too soon, and the test might have not picked up. Please advise on this as I'm really scared. The past 3 months I only performed unprotected oral sex, no orgasm inside my mouth, but there could have been cuts and I didn't notice. I had done oral sex with different persons lately. What are the chances of me getting the HIV as well?

I am in a relationship for around a year now. Almost overtime we had sex I had some smelly whitish or not colored discharge for a few days. Sometimes we didn't have sex at all and healed by itself and sometimes it took a while till it goes away completely. Also in the beginning of our relationship I had some issues with my period. I was having trouble with having it and once I didn't get my period for almost 3 months. My doctor didn't do any tests and gave me a birth control pill. It still didn't work and she gave a more powerful one. Now I have my periods on time every month for 6 months.
Last week my boyfriend suddenly had a big pain and burn in his penis when we had sex after 3 weeks without having sex. Then he started getting discharge from his penis. Is it possible that I had gonorrhea all the time but he didn't have symptoms and healed by himself. He was working on his bachelor degree and he was completely out of shape because of that. Is there any chance that he had the symptoms for the first time ever this week because his immune system got weak or something. I am gonna have a test for fertility because our doctor told us that if I had it all the time, there is a high chance that I might got barren.

I am a gay male who has had confirmed gonorrhea and has been treated successfully (injection with antibiotics and regular tablets).
My GP insists that I also undergo a HIV test, since gonorrhea and HIV are often contracted together. I got the gonorrhea from unprotected oral sex. At the same time I also had protected anal sex (as a top).
While I wasn't that concerned, I started to develop a minor rash on my chest, shoulders and arms. Could this be a HIV primary infection rash or could it be due to the antibiotics (ten days ago), stress.

I just tested positive for gonorrhea in my throat. The test came out negative for all other STDs.
I had oral sex last week with a guy (I gave him a blowjob). If the gonorrhea was already there from a previous sexual contact, did that increase my risk for HIV when I gave that guy a blowjob (without having had semen in my mouth)?

I had unprotected anal sex (giving and receiving) and caught gonorrhea over a month ago. Had burning on urination and penis discharge especially in the morning. I received treatment and symptoms subsided from the urinary tract. However, I'm suspecting a persistent rectal problem. There is discomfort with bowel movements, and faeces are greenish brown and not solid (abit leafy almost). I live in an extremely homophobic country, so theres no way I can get checked for a possible anal STD without the risk or persecution. Please advise. Should I repeat the treatment for a 3rd time? Is the bacteria becoming resistant?

I tested positive for gonorrhea today and my doctor gave me some antibiotics which I took as soon as I got home. My doctor told me that I shouldn't have unprotected sex for 7 days, however I was going to see my boyfriend in 8 days and I planned on having sex with him. Would it be safe to have sex with him without giving him gonorrhea if we used a condom? I figured it would be okay since it's past 7 days, but I just want to make sure.

Few years ago, i was diagnosed with gonorrhea and I was left untreated for 1.5 months.
Later, my symptom of gonorrhea has gone. However, symptoms of prostatitis developed and lasted till now (its almost
3 years). I have taken so many antibiotics for a year. But finally they seemed useless to my pain of prostatitis (so i quit it). Now the symptoms are mild. But it really bothers me. I have thought to suicide, because I think i am still contagious of STD. I am afraid gonorrhea is hiding in my prostate, causing prostatitis.
I have done so many tests (PCR of semen, prostatic fluid). They came back neg. However, I wonder if these tests are false neg (because the false neg reports made me left untreated my problem of gonorrhea. I am afraid i would pass STD to my gf...I am afraid i could not father a child..these problems annoy me so much..Sometimes i would think its better to die rather than suffer..can someone professional or experienced help me?

I met my boyfriend this summer, and after a while we decided to have anal sex. We went unprotected and after some days I had a clear discharge. It went like that about two weeks before I got tested. I did a full test for STDs and gonorrhea came back positive, my partner had it all negative.
Our doctor prescribed only for me an injection of ceftriaxone 250mg and 10 days of longamicine. My partner didn't take anything.
After some weeks we had sex again and I got reinfected, I had burning coming back again, a yeast infection, and dicharges, and a very painful testicule and very itchy at the same time. My doctor gave me the same treatment as before and my boyfriend took it too.
After two weeks, I had clear discharge coming back again and we didn't have sex at all since the last incident. No itching, no pain, just a clear discharge which sometime is white. My doctor gave me this time Cipro 500 mg for 5 days to clear everything, but it didn't stop at all.
I want to go for a test again but would the results be accurate after 2 weeks of the last treatment (with Cipro) or should I wait longer ?
I am really concerned about those last discharges as it might cause big damages.

I lived in Spain for a couple of years when I was 14 and I had a drunk one night stand at the age of 15 with a spanish boy, I wasn't sure if it was protected but when I found out about a year later that I had chlamydia I presume that it was unprotected. Ever since I have moved back from Spain, I have a boyfriend who I have been with for 16 months, the day I found out we both went straight to the clinic to get it treated. Even though it was only just me who came back positive for it, my boyfriend took some pills for it too and he also did a test, and for some reason came out negative. I stopped taking the pill about a month ago, I am nearly 18 and me and my boyfriend want to try for a baby, but I have always had a fear that I cannot get pregnant due to the fact i've had chlamydia.Please can somebody put my mind at ease and explain if I can or cant get pregnant and if I can, how long will it take on average?

i have recently found out that i'm infected with chlamydia and i'm so embarrassed and i feel so disgusting. im so mad just the fact that i might have had gotten it from my ex.because i have just been with him and one more person and i barely started being sexually active.
i hate him because when i found out which was today i called him i just told him to get checked he just replied that it wasn't from him it might of been from the other guy. he was being ignorant. i was telling him because his dirty he has sex with any stranger and plus i had sex with both guys almost around the same time so he should have it .
i just recently find out i was infected why is that they told me i had to get an ultrasound even if i know im not prego.
how long does it take to get rid of it? should i tell my mom? how would you know if u got the bacteria in your mouth?
