A member asked:
I had chlamydia. but im in a relationsship with my partner for 4 years now. do i have to inform my (female) ex-partners from 4-5 years ago?

No need: Even without treatment, chlamydia is cleared by the immune system long before 4 years, usually within a year. From a medical standpoint, there's no point in informing partners that long ago.
