The question asks "will it put ME at risk". It might still involve a higher risk for others.

Can't have that with a hooker either, but I guess we have different understandings about the meaning of real sex

Strangely OP never mentioned hookers, there is plenty of good non P4P recreational sex out there...

With STDs it's much better to be negative than positive...

Which one is worse, Gonorrhoea or Influenza ?

Doxocyclin not a good proposition if you stay out in the sun for long, like you would in Thailand.

Can also turn your teeth yellow, and brushing won't make them white again.

It's an anti-biotic?

 

My understanding of anti-biotics:

- overuse can lead to resistance

- antibiotics harm the gut microbiome, which will weaken your immune system.

 

if taking any significant amount of antibiotics, perhaps look into taking probiotic supplements to strengthen the gut microbiome?
