A member asked:
If i get checked for gonorrhea 5 days after exposure, will the results be accurate? or is that too early?

Maybe: Do you have symptoms? If you have symptoms, you can show positive test results. But if you don't you should wait 2 weeks unless symptoms develop sooner. CDC says Incubation period: usually 1-14 days for symptomatic disease. Most become symptomatic in 2-5 days after exposure. Don't just check for gonorrhea. Unprotected sex can cause several STD's. If you have gonorrhea, may have more STD's
