I may have had gonorrhea for over a year. What kind of complications could I have?


I believe I might have gonorrhea and/or chlamydia. I plan to go get tested, the question is not what to do IF I have it. I am wondering what kind of complications i could have since I believe I contracted this over a year ago.

It really depends on the infection itself and not the time it has been within you. From what I have been told by a few doctor's - women could develop PID right away from getting these infections or they may not develop them at all.
When you go to your doctor and get tested, relay your fears to them. They can do a physcial exam and also do an ultrasound to see if any damage has occured during this time.
Don't plan to go get tested, just go get tested asap.

You are at least 5 times more susceptible of developing HIV.
Consult yur doctor immediately this is a serious matter.

Don't panic, just get tested and take things from there.

I'd reccomend the full range of tests. STDs tend to be transmitted in groups. Get that HIV test.

All the best.

You really should ask your doctor all of these questions.

In the long run it could cause PID which can cause infertillity and lots of pain. But there is nothing you can do till you get tested, then you can go from there.
