No it's not, you should never engage in sexual activity while undergoing treatment for an STI
What’ll happen?
You can still infect the other person or more likely infect other parts of yourself which may then not be treated by the current course of antibiotics that you are on. A survey done a couple of years ago found that more than 60% of men didn't remove condoms correctly and as a result were liable to either still pass on infections or infect other parts of themselves. Is it really worth taking the risk when we are talking about you going without for 1 week?
