Here are some...: You have three options to take: 1. be empirically treated orally with 1 gm azithromycin or doxycycline 100 mg twice daily for 7 days and assume cured; 2. be tested and treated as above; & 3. do as 2. and retested to confirm curing chlamydia. Besides, maintain monogamous relationship, still aware: Occasionally, gonorrhea & trich may come along and many STD-infected persons may remain asymptomatic.

Physician: If her doctor will not write it for you, your physician should give you the medication. It is important that you both be treated at the same time to prevent reinfection

Health clinic: Most standard primary care doctors, OB/GYN, and/or urologists can do the testing. it is a simple urine test. Often times you will get empirically (just in case) treated if you are worried or symptomatic. The treatment course is very simple, often times just 2 pills.
