Help! i need information about chlamydia!!!?


Hi, I'm in a monogamous relationship, i have been with my bf for almost 6 years. Recently I went to my doctor for a regular check up and i was diagnosed with Chlamydia. I have been faithful to him all this time and I am pretty sure that he has been too. So my question is that if i or he could get it from another whay than sexual intercourse, like from a public bathroom or something like that... Please i will really appreciate all your help! Also let me know if there is any website where i can get more information.
Thanks!

It's REALLY unlikely that you got it from a bathroom or just by communal touching or anything like that (like sitting somewhere that someone else sat who had it). It's not IMPOSSIBLE but it's quite improbable.

Did you get tested 6 years ago before you began your monogamous relationship? Chlamydia is often symptom-less, so you may have had it for the past six years or more without even knowing if you don't get tested regularly.

If you do get tested regularly, the likelihood is that you would have caught it from your boyfriend much earlier in the relationship if he had contracted it prior to your relationship. The chances of you sleeping with him for six years and just now catching the STI are low. Unfortunately, this means that he must have contracted it since your last STD screening.

Either way, your boyfriend has it, too, and both of you should get on antibiotics to clear it up. Don't have intercourse until treatment is complete so you don't reinfect each other. If you take antibiotics and he doesn't and you continue to sleep with him, you will reinfect yourself.

The bottom line is, the strong odds are you got this sexually, either from your current boyfriend or a prior partner. If you've been checked in the past six years, it's from your current boyfriend, which means he probably isn't being faithful. If you haven't been checked in the past six years, you've probably been carrying it around since before you entered this relationship.

wow thats scary. Hope you can figure it out. Sorry I cant help.
