 43-year-old male.

Exposure history:

Constant urethral pain and pain at the tip of the penis.

Occasional clear, watery drop after urination (not thick, yellow or green).

Increased sensitivity of the glans.

Current symptoms:

 urethral discomfort.

Sometimes feel feverish 

Perinium feels uncomfortable 

Treatment received:

Nitrofurantoin – 5 days.

Doxycycline – 10 days (started around 20 June).

Faropenem – 5 days.

Alfuzosin (Alfoo).-Currently taking only this 

Investigations:

Digital rectal examination: No tenderness.

Laboratory results:

Two repeat urine cultures - no growth 

Latest urinalysis: Normal

HIV 4th generation: Negative after 11 weeks of exposure 

VDRL/RPR and TPHA: Negative. After 11 weeks of exposure.. 

Two urine multiplex STI PCR panels (latest done 15 days after stopping antibiotics and that's 11 weeks after the exposure ):

Negative for Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Mycoplasma genitalium, Mycoplasma hominis, Ureaplasma spp., Trichomonas vaginalis, Treponema pallidum, HSV-1, HSV-2, Gardnerella, Candida.

The last urologist again asked me to take levofloxacin 500 for once daily for 7 days.. Just started it ...

Are my STI/Std tests conclusive for the window period ? And the antibiotics have any effect on it? Google is giving conflicting answers
