Embarassing question?!
Question: I was having horrible urinary symptoms for a while, and I visited the doctor and she tested me for gonorrhea and chlamydia. I'm not sure yet how the tests came back, but I was given an antibiotic and my symptoms cleared up BIG TIME. However, without thinking I went and had sex with my boyfriend. If I DID have anything, do you think I re-got it by carelessly having sex with my boyfriend? Serious answers only please, I'm not in the mood to be critisized.

Wow.
Yes, I would say if he didn't have it before you could have given it to him.
If you gave it to him..then yes..you can re-infect yourself.
If you were still on antibiotics you may be ok..talk to your gyno.
If you have been having sex with ONLY your boyfriend then consider that maybe he is the one that gave it to you in the first place which means he gave you gonorrhea and chlamydia because he doesn't like condoms.
He apparently doesn't like them with other girls/guys as well.
PLEASE reconsider your choice of lover and/or using condoms. There are diseases that do more than make you itch and walk funny...they can kill you.
Very simple. Don't have sex.
LOL.
No one is ever in the "mood to be critisized" but you're asking for it with question like this.
Sure, it's possible if you still had whatever it was. Maybe you both should get checked again just to make sure.
Yes its possible. get the results of the test, if you have something talk to your doctor about having sex with him and he needs to be treated also...
hopefully it was a uti and nothing worse
You probably just have a UTI. I used to get them all the time when I had sex, and an antibiotic cleared it up. Check out this link, see if they are the same symptoms

get him tested, thats about the best option. try a female condom (yes, they exist) but unprotected is a little risky
ok well if you did have an std yes you will get it again but most likely you only had a bacteria infection which is not an std and you will not get it again by having sex with your bf. the antibiotic that was given to you will not cure any stds because the doctor didnt know for sure you have an std until you get the results. so if you did have an std you probably still have it and so does your bf.
Yes! Tell your BF to go get checked out. Women show more symptoms then guys do. Luckily you got one of those because they can easily be cured by antibiotics. I would even go get an HIV test because if he doesn't like condoms then how many more people has he slept with? And make sure you finish taking all the antibiotics! Even if your symptoms go away their is still some bacteria that survived and if you stop taking them before the dosage runs out then they will multiple and be even harder to get rid of. So please do not stop until you have taken all that was giving to you.
Well I really hope for the best of you. Good Luck
Sorry just read some of the other answers so I had to add some more.
uh and yes some std's are caused by bacteria. (these are the curable ones ones such as herpes and HIV are caused by viruses and are not curable as of now) You get them while having sex thats why they are called an std. It could also be a UNI like some people mentioned and if thats the case then you have nothing to worry about. But I would really consider either making your bf wear a condom or find a new one.
Ok then yes there is a HUGE chance you re-got what you had. This is of course assuming he is the only person you have been having sex with the whole time. For your own well being though I suggest you use condoms.
take care
If you do not want constructive criticism then you are asking the wrong question. You probably had an STD and only passed it back and forth if had sex with your boyfriend. I am assuming that you are only active with him and have been for some time or at least before the symptoms occurred. In this case you probably got i from him and just reinfected yourself. You should be asking him questions as to what he has been up to. If he doesn't like condoms that means that if he is sleeping around he isn't using a condom with them either. You really should use a condom and insist upon it because if you were to get pregnant you could cause serious complications with an STD. Some of them can cause blindness, heart conditions, mental retardation, and even severe deformities. You should not have any more sex with this biy until you are able to assess the situation and use your gut to determine what is appropriate. Don't just sleep with him to not be alone. You do not know what he gave you and you do not know how serious it is. You need to go back to see the doctor and practice self control.
If your boyfriend is the only one you're sleeping with and you contracted an STD, that would mean you got it from him. Unless he is tested and treated, you will keep getting reinfected. This should also make you think in terms of who else he might be sleeping with.
you didn't re-get anything, but you may have infected him. thank goodness you're on the pill.
If your tests come back positive for having an STD and you had sex with him in the mean time, yes, you can become reinfected.
If this relationship is not monogamous and you are not 100% sure that both of you are 'clean' then it's not wise to forego using condoms. 1) STDs can effect your ability to get pregnant later on when you do want a family. 2) What if it was not only an STD but AIDs that he transmitted? Or herpes (doesn't kill you, but you live with it for the rest of your life).
The decision to not use condoms should not be based solely upon whether or not you are on the pill and the risk of pregnancy. The use of condoms is also to reduce spread of STDs and HIV. Don't kid yourself that you 'can tell' or can 'know' if someone is the type to have Herpes, STD or AIDS. ... Be careful. Protect yourself.
This is not criticism. It's just the truth and things you need to consider. Again, be careful. Don't be a statistic.
You and your boyfriend should both go to the doctors and have tests If he won't do this he's not worth it. Keep this in mind for the future your not only having unprotected sex with your boyfriend but with everyone he's slept with, everyone his prior partners have slept, everyone their partners have slept with ect
condom condom condom.you really are careless arn't you.irresponsible some would say....as you do appear to be abit careless about alittle thing like gonorrhea,then getting pregnant rather a high risk and baby born with a start like that well it not good....go back to doc and take boyfriend with you
You really don't sound responsible enough to be having sex, whether protected or not! You and your bf BOTH need to be tested, since you're having unprotected sex. You may have gotten something from him or given him something. Either way one of you has been unfaithful!
If it is an STD! STD's don't just appear out of thin air, hence the name "Sexually Transmitted Disease"!
you should both be tested for everything and it would be wise to stop having sex before you find out whats going on, because he could reinfect you if its chlamydia or ghonnorea
well he might not like condoms, but does he like kids? because when u r on antibiotics the effectiveness of the pill is significantly affected, so u could get pregnant and pass the std on to the child
I am sorry but what I find very funny is what makes you think he did not have it already. If you had it you had to get it somewhere. Not unless you were playing around and if you were did you have sex with him before you found out you had it. Cause he then had it already. So both of you need to get checked and get medication. LOL Cause if you have been having sex with each other and you have it then you both have it. And if you did not cheat then you might want to take a good LONG LOOK AT HIM. Cause someone had to bring this in the relationship. So in god we trust all others we check so I would start doing some checking honey.
