I’m finishing my 7 day since I got a shot from a Doctor and 4 pills I had the next day that were prescribed. Can I have sex today?

Hi, thanks for your question

Yes, you can have sex today! BUT if the person that you’re going to have sex with was a partner from before you got treatment, make sure they took the treatment and waited for 7 days before sex as well!

If you have sex with an ongoing partner that has not been treated for the infection, you will likely get it back again.

Let us know if this does not answer your question or if you have any more questions or concerns.
