Posted on Sun, 9 Mar 2014
Question: Hopefully this will complete my concerns about Clamydia. Is it possible I had the STD and had no systems, then became symptomatic. Trying to figure where and who this came from. Prior to this three year monogamist relationship . I had abstained from all sex for Three and half years with no systems of an infection.
