Can someone get STD if they had sex with a person who was diagnosed and treated for gonorrhea?

Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have read your query and understand your concern. Firstly, you must relax and not allow your condition to further worsen the mental stress that you already seem to bear. Whatever it is, it can be taken care of. Now note the following points; respond with the answers to my queries, and plan a video consultation session to address the problems. Your partner had gonorrhea. And even though he was treated at some point in time the ideal approach for any partner having an STI (sexually transmitted Infection), especially like gonorrhea, involves evaluation and empirical treatment or specific treatment for gonorrhea of the other partner simultaneously, irrespective of the presence or absence of symptoms in the other partner at that time. ) If you were not concomitantly treated for gonorrhea along with your partner when he or she was detected, then you might have been infected with a high possibility, and remained as a carrier, with the development of full gonorrhea a few days later, and possibly given the infection back to the treated partner. Pus cells in excess in urine would be significant depending upon the urine collection. Additionally, a urethral smear and a cervical smear from you should have been submitted or needs to be submitted now for staining for gonorrhea and non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU) or cervicitis. Symptom of dysuria alone may be suggestive of both gonococcal or non-gonococcal urethritis, with or without cervicitis. Frank discharge from the urethra is rather uncommon in women compared to men. Foul-smelling cervical discharge is common, but not essential for considering gonorrhea. Lastly, you took Unasyn (Ampicillin and Sulbactam) antibiotic for 7 days. This treatment was in all likelihood a total failure due to the rampant resistance of urinary tract infection-causing bacteria, and both gonococcal, and NGU(Non-Gonococcal Urethritis) causing bacteria. Cephalosporins with or without Azithromycin or Doxycycline are given both as an injection, and orally respectively, are the only recommended treatment in your case. The same can be discussed after you provide me with details as requested and the test results suggested.

Thank you.
