Yes.: In fact, 60-70% of herpes simplex and chlamydia may be asymptomatic. Syphilis and gonorrhea less likely, but still possible.

Not likely: All of them should cause some symptoms or develop into worse conditions if untreated over years please see your gyn as u can be tested to see if you have any active disease.
