Brief Answer: IT IS SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED Detailed Answer: Hello Thanks for writing to us with your health concern. Yes, Chlamydial infection is sexually acquired. So your partner has to have it , if you are in a monogamous relationship. More often than not, it is a silent infection, and is not symptomatic. He should be tested for the same. All the best. Please feel free to discuss further.
