After finishing a seven day treatment on doxycycline for chlamydia, how long does someone have to wait to have unprotected sex again?

You are there: You abstain for seven days from the start of antibiotic treatment. Take care.

Chlamydia: Forty eight hours after treatment, but a culture to prove it is gone is necessary. Also, your partner should have been treated, and if you have had recent multiple partners, they should have as well. The problem is that after treatment, anyone could reintroduce chlamydia if they have not been treated, and most women who have it , do not have symptoms.

You should...: be able to after completing treatment....but if you should is a different topic...you've just been treated for an STD (sexually transmitted disease). You were lucky it was something easily treatable. The best advice here is to have protected sex until your in a monogamous relationship (and maybe even then too). Just something to think about.
