Hello,

Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.

Most people who have chlamydia have no symptoms. Please note that both males and females may have it without having any signs so you can be infected with chlamydia for months or even years without realising it.

Your sexual partner should be tested for infection - this is the only way to be sure that he is not infected.

Chlamydia is treated with antibiotics. Try to not have sex for one week after you have finished your antibiotic treatment.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
