How Can Chlamydia Be Treated?

Hello Dr. I need some urgent advice. Two weeks ago i went for blood tests which drs confirmed i had chlamydia..dr also said ut was in the acute phase so i was exposed to it in the last 6 months. I havent been with any other man except my fiance in 9 years. He went for tests (penile swab) and his tests were negative. I then went for a full cervical swab papsmear but havent received my results. I did however see on my mobile lancet that the chlamydia thrichomonas says not observed and the thricomatis says result pending. What does it mean not observed? Could i have the eye /pulmonary chlamydia? My fiance says he was not with another woman and i do know he is thruthful. How could i have gotten this? Please help

Hello, chlamidia is mainly transmitted through sexual route. Some times when people have chlamidia infection in eye . it can be transmitted via contact with those secretions also. Males are usually symptomless or show minor symptoms but they infect others. Single dose of azithromycin or twice daily doxycyclin for 7-14days is helpful in curing the disease. Hope this helps
Thank you.
