Does Chlamydia Clears Up In Males Within 6 Months Without Medication?
Hi, my boyfriend has tested equivocal for chlamydia and I have tested negative. He has been retested but we are awaiting the result. He says he has never been with anyone else since the start of our relationship and I know that I haven t either. He says that he was advised by the health center that I could be lying, or that I caught the disease and it cleared up by itself within the 6 months from when I last got tested until the recent results. I ve never contracted an STI before and the test from 6 months ago and from 2 weeks ago both show negative for me. Is it true that chlamydia can clear up in males within 6 months by itself with no treatment (and with no other anti-biotics or medication being taken for anything else)?

Hello,
It's unlikely that Chlamydia will clear itself without taking medications. Wait for the test reports. The first test which reported positive could be erroneous.Take care.
