Thoat Gonorrhea Clears on its Own?

Dr.,

Could you please confirm for me that throat gonorrhea can clear on it's own?  Two weeks after an encounter, I was tested and cleared for uretha stds.  However, I have a sore throat now.  If I do have gonorrhea in the throat, can it clear on it's own in time?  Thank you.

Youre very welcome. I had a scare a couple of weeks ago. It can be a nightmare. There is  way to direct your question to a professional doctor. It will cost you 15 dollars. If you go under the STD doctor's fourm. You can post a question there. THey only take a limited amount of questions so you have to be quick with it. Good luck

I heard that gonorreha is really hard to catch via the thorat. Are you sure thats what is? I have also read some of the threads where the doctors have replied to serveal questions and they stated that both Gonorrhea and chlamydia clear up on their own. Try doing a search on this web site to see if you find anything. I hope you dont have it.

Thanks again nikkieh.  I wonder if you can pay without using a credit card?

It was good finding the scientific articles online that confirmed that throat gonorrhea does clear itself.  I don't think I had it to begin with.

Actually, I'm pretty sure I don't have it, and the cold - slight sore throat I have is just coincidental.  I have seen a couple of references to throat gonorrhea spontaneously curing on its own on this web site, and today read a couple of scientific articles that stated the same.  The information on the web can be confusing.  Thank you so much for your reply and concern!

Thank you for  your response kartibright.  Dr. H. on a couple of threads noted that oral gonorrhea would clear on its own in about 12 weeks.  I read the same thing on a different medical website.  The person I had the encounter with claims he is disease free.  I doubt the oral I performed transmitted gonorrhea to me, the urine std tests were negative.  The throat sensation I have is very slight, also have some nasal drip and lung congestion ... so I think its just coincidental.  Otherwise, I am very fit and healthy.  I would appreciate the doctor's opinion on this.  Thanks.

You need treatment if it is gonorrhea, it is easy to treat at the primary stage , if you neglect it it will progress to next stage and reatment becomes complex.. immediately see a Doctor.
