Brief Answer:
May be dormant
Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
Gonorrhea may be dormant for several years and it doesn't need to cause any symptoms. However,in most cases there are symptoms within few weeks after infection. It would be best if you tests too and then everything will be clear. Wish you good health. Regards
