How long do stds stay in your system after being treated?

Answer 1

An STD generally leaves your system after being treated, but this varies depending on the STD. Genital herpes, for example, never actually leaves your system regardless of the treatment.

Answer 2

The length of time that an STD stays in your system after being treated varies depending on the type of STD and the effectiveness of the treatment. Some STDs like chlamydia and gonorrhea can be cured with antibiotics and may be cleared from the body within a few days to a few weeks. However, other STDs like herpes and HIV are lifelong infections that can be managed but not completely eliminated. Regular testing and follow-up care with a healthcare provider are important to monitor for any reoccurrence.
