I had a pid. i got the antibotics on friday. when is it safe to have sex again and does my partner need antibotics?

A loaded question: When you don't have pain/fever, then it is ok for the physical relation. But, is it safe? If the pid is caused by a sexually transmitted infection such as gonorrhea/chlamydia and your partner has not been treated, then i would not recommend it, even with condom. Condom use reduces chances of std, but not 100%. Follow-up with your doc for the test result and get treated completely. Good luck.
