Hey thanks for your faith in the health care magic.i have gone through your question and understood your problem.
you should mention about what type of infection caused by Chlamydia to you as this organism can cause respiratory tract infection, Genital tract infection and Ophthalmic infection .
But as I feel that you are suffering from genital tract infection .I want to explain you that this is an intracellular organism and take long to time to get cure . I woudl like toknow also that how do you that you are having Chlamydia (I mean by which investigation ) ? because it may be a mixed infection so correct diagnosis is important . You should also go for investigation to HIV as this kind of infection carry the risk of transmission to HIV .
Treatment of alone you will not be curative.For complete cure your all sexual partner should receive same treatment same time and during course of therapy you should keep sexual abstinence or you can use barrier protection method (Condoms) .
I advice you following tretment :
Doxycyclin 100mg two times a day for 21 days
Azithromycin1000mg weakly for 3wks.
This treatment should be taken by your all sexual partner .
Review me after 21 days
Hope I have answered your query. If you like my answers and wish me to answer in future, bring it to my attention
