Can a guy to have chlamydia for nineteen years (his whole life) and not know it?

Yes: If you had a sexual contact and contracted the std, it is possible to be a carrier of the chlamydia as well as ureaplasm for years. This makes them particularly troublesome from a public health stand point. They are however treatable with antibiotics.
