A member asked:
Had chlamydia a couple of months ago & was treated.haven't had sex of any kind since, can it come back?

Yes: This is the kind of infection you can get multiple times, as you develop no immunity.Any exposure to a carrier source can bring on a new infection.Once treated and cured, it does not re-emerge on it's own.
