Gonorrhea treatment

I was treated for gonorrhea today. I received a shot and a dose of antibiotics. My partner and I had sex tonight with a condom but it broke. Is my treatment still going to work. I've never had any symptoms.

did your partner also get treated for gonorrhea too?

refrain from sex for 1 full week at this point. after that, return for repeat testing to be sure of your status.

You should refrain from sexual contact until you are cured. Very difficult to answer. Re-infection may occur.
