A member asked:
My partner was given two pills of 500g to treat chlymidia and we had sex just like 5 hours after with protection would that affect his treatment?

Some basics: The antibiotic taken for chlamydia will be in his system for around a week during which it will try to kill off the germ. He can still spread the chlamydia to you, condom or not, until the germ is gone in about a week. If you have it and are not treated at the same time you will re-infect him at some point.
