What are the chances that chlamydia and gonorrhea treatment worked?

For Chlamydia:

- Test of cure (TOC): This test is done 1 to 2 weeks after the completion of treatment to confirm that the infection has been cured. If the test result is negative, it usually indicates that the treatment was effective. The chances of the treatment working and being cured after a negative TOC are high, about 95% or higher.

- Repeat symptoms: If you experience symptoms of chlamydia again, such as unusual discharge or pain during urination, it's important to see a healthcare provider for evaluation and possible repeat testing to determine if the treatment was effective or if reinfection occurred.

For Gonorrhea:

- Test of cure (TOC): Similar to chlamydia, a TOC for gonorrhea is usually performed 1 to 2 weeks after the completion of treatment. A negative result generally indicates successful treatment. The cure rates for gonorrhea after proper treatment are typically high, around 95-98%.

- Repeat symptoms: If symptoms persist or reappear, such as discharge, pain, or burning sensation during urination, it's important to seek medical attention for further evaluation and potential repeat testing to ascertain whether the treatment was effective or if reinfection happened.

It's essential to follow the prescribed treatment regimen, complete all medication, and avoid having unprotected sex until you and your partner have been confirmed as cured to minimize the risk of treatment failure and potential complications.
