Question 2

does oral gonorrhea/chlamydia go away on its own after a few months or a year?

Accepted Answer

It can: Untreated gonorrhea and chlamydia infections can resolve on their own after weeks to months. We would never recommend waiting on spontaneous resolution when treatments and testing are widely available.

Question 3

can chlamydia go away on its own without treatment?

Accepted Answer

Yes it can: Chlamydia almost always is cleared by the immune system, without antibiotics. It takes a few months or even a year or two. In the meantime it can cause terrible damage to the reproductive system. If one partner is infected and the other has a negative test, it is possible the test missed the infection; the tests are good but not perfect. The partner with the negative test still needs treatment.

Try using over the counter monistat, but use twice a daily to the area for one week. If no resolution, see your doctor.
