how long does it take til its out your system?

Recenty received a shot on Saturday for gonorrhea....I've never had a std before how long does it take til its out my system? And the only symptom was discharge so how long til that stops as well? Is the shot effective? And lastly  my boyfriend and I never have unprotected sex but could he have contracted it by giving me oral sex before I got tested? ....I'm positive it came from the guy before him I didn't cheat and neither did he...help I'm nervous and scared!

no sexual contact until you've both had all your std testing done. make sure he gets the oral swab too .

No the blood work gets done next wk....and no he hasn't been tested I read men have symptoms most times effectively I don't know how true that is but he has no signs orally or in his genital area ....we haven't been active since my shot to be on the safe side

you need to avoid sex completely for 1 week.

has your bf been tested yet? if you think you got it from your previous partner and your current partner has performed unprotected oral sex on you, he'll need oral testing for gonorrhea too.

did you and your bf get full std testing that includes herpes igg blood testing too? have you both had your gardasil shots for hpv yet?
