Chlamydia: Men can be fully asymptomatic. The chlamydia can be in their throat, penis or rectum, depending on their exposure. If there is no symptoms (commonly a penile itch, burning or discharge). There is several ways to test such as a urine test or a swab designed to catch the bug for dna testing.
