A member asked:

I had sex for the first time 50 days ago and recently found out i have gonorrhea. could i have gotten it then?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible: It is possible to have contracted the disease 50 days ago and not have had any symptoms. Asymptomatic gonorrhea can occur in men and women, which then can lead to further spreading of the disease.
