STI testing query
Who should go for a NAAT pcr test of gonnorhea?
because routine STI panels don't include gonnorhea in the package.
I had unprotected oral and vaginal intercourse once and i have not had any symptoms except for a bacterial infection on my tonsils which is cured now.
I thought i should get an STI test for precaution but what to do abt gonnohorea?
Pls tell if i can skip gonnorhea for now ? Or do I need to go for naat pcr gonnorhea?

Heya...
From your chronological description of events and query, it appears you don't have any issue at the moment as the tonsillitis appears to have cleared.
I would say skip the test but consult with a non judgemental qualified Dermatologist going forward to understand this a bit better and practice safe sex.
