Treated for gonorrhea, how long do we wait?


My boyfriend and i both tested positive for gonorrhea....we took the zithromax treatment which was 4 capsules of 500 milligrams....we took all four at once both of us at the same time.....my question is can we start to have sex yet? it has been a week without sex now and we really want to but not if it's risky transferring back and forth....which i dont understand cuz we have both been treated......any help is appreciated!

i did ask my doctor....he said wait two weeks get tested again and then its best to wait 4 more weeks...that is 6 weeks! what i dont understand is if we are both already being treated why cant we?

They usually give you a time frame. I think it is about 2 weeks.

contact your doctor and ask, safe sex will prevent reinfection
