Can you reinfect yourself with gonorrhea during treatment?
Yes, you may reinfect yourself with gonorrhea during treatment by not preventing yourself from exposure to an infection. It’s good to prevent multiple sexual partners, skin-to-skin contact with infected fluids, and using condoms for protective sexual intercourse.
Can doxycycline alone treat gonorrhea?
No, doxycycline alone is not enough to treat gonorrhea, as some doxycycline strains are resistant to gonorrhea bacterium. The first-line treatment for gonorrhea is ceftriaxone, after which a combination of doxycycline or azithromycin is prescribed to treat gonorrhea completely and effectively. Doxycycline alone is not strong enough to address a gonorrhea infection.
