Chlamydia : Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted disease, so if you have it, your partner probably has it. Your partner should see their health professional to get tested. If your partner has chlamydia, they will also have to take antibiotics. If you've had sex with more than one partner, you should tell everyone you had sex with so they all can get treated.
