Question 1

can you have a baby after chlymidia?

Accepted Answer

Yes. : Yes, but chlamydia can also cause infertility and subsequent ectopic pregnancy.

Question 2

can chlymidia reappear 10-15 years later?

Accepted Answer

Possibly: Chlamydia is an intracellular organism. It may not even be symptomatic on initial infection, and as such can become symptomatic well after exposure. Testing is good but there are false negatives.

Question 3

does the four tablets to treat chlymidia cure oral chlymida?

Accepted Answer

Azithromycin: Yes. Azithromycin is still thought to be 100% effective at treating chlamydia.

Question 4

can u become fertile again after cured from chlymidia?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Males get an easy pass with chlamydia. Treatment almost always  restores you to your prior level of fertility. Women infected with chlamydia can suffer damage to their Fallopian tubes that make the natural process impossible, but this may or may not occur in a specific case.

Question 5

since both partners have chlymidia can they have safe sex?

Accepted Answer

No: Not until both are treated and cured. Otherwise  you will constantly be spreading the infection back and forth with potential serious consequences.

Question 6

can you still have oral sex while being treated for chlymidia?

Accepted Answer

Yes: But the better decision, both for you and your partner would be to abstain until you are sure this has been successfully eliminated, as therapeutic failures can occur.

Question 7

can you get chlymidia shareing drinks with someone who has it ?

Accepted Answer

No: You can only catch chlamydia as a sexually transmitted disease, not from sharing drinks with someone.

Question 8

how long wld it take chlymidia to be cured after given 4 500mg azithromycim?

Accepted Answer

Cure vs symptoms: The medication will treat the infection quickly, but symptoms of the infection may last for weeks or even months in some people.  The important thing is to make sure your partner(s) are also treated.  We typically test for cure 1-2 weeks after treatment.  Look at cdc.gov for more information and answers.

Question 9

what do you suggest if my test was positive for chlymidia my bfs was negative?

Accepted Answer

Get treated: This would suggest you were infected by another source.People can carry this in their system for years without obvious symptoms.Both you and your partner should be treated.

Question 10

i am currently being treated for chlymidia and i have noticed my discharge is pink, is this normal?

Accepted Answer

Not surprising: I don't think normal is the right word. It is it normal to have chlamydia. Focus on the fact that you're being treated for it now. Once you're treated for the cervical infection then  the irregular spotting should stop.
