Hello ,
I understand your concern. I am Dr. Arun Tank, infectious disease specialist, answering your concern.

Implant wont make any effect on chlamydia. It wont affect badly nor it is good for the chlamydia.

Yes you can treat yourself without knowing your partner. But if your partner is infected by chlamydia you again can contact it.

So if you both get treated simultaneously than complete cure can be possible otherwise there is chance of relapse.

If you want to cure you only take the Tab Azithromycin 1gm single dose. You can repeat the dose if the cure not completed after a first dose.
In case you alone is taking the treatment please wear a condom to get cross infection from your partner.

Glad to answer your further concern.
We wish you a best health at healthcare magic.
Thank you,
Dr. Arun Tank
