Neither cause itchin: Itching is not a symptom of gonorrhea or chlamydia. Ask if you were tested for trichomoniasis which is another common STD. you may have developed a yeast infection from the antibiotics. This can cause itching. Try an over the counter yeast cream while you wait for an appointment with an Obgyn.

Itching for week: Since you got your treatment for gonorrhea only on 6/19 ,and Erythromycin for chlamydia on6/11 , the itching will last for a week or so but will be less in intensity .If itching still persist ,then talk to your doctor
