Clamidia (could He Have It) Posted: 01-22-07 18:22pm
I have recently found out I have got
clamidia but I have been sleeping with the
same partner for a few months now and when
I told him, he said he hasnt slept with
anyone else. If have only slept with one
other person before him does it mean my
new partner will definatley have
contracted it?.

I don't know the details here as far what
std protection, if any, you two use, but I
am going to say that it certainly is
possible, maybe even probable depending on
your std protection, that he has it too.
If you two use male latex condoms, his
chances of having it are not as great, but
condoms are not 100% effective, so even
then the chance is still there.
Chlamydia can also be passed through oral
sex, so even if he never had vaginal
intercourse with anyone else, that does
not mean that the chlamydia did not come
from him. There is certainly no harm in
his getting checked.

Most definetly he is infected as well. He
should definetly get tested and like I
said in the previous post, it is very
easily treated. Only one dose of
antibiotic.
I would like to know how old are you if
you don't mind me asking. Just curious if
it is true that this particular std
affects more teenagers than adults.

I had it last year. Just because you
have it does not always mean that your
partner has it. My doctor told me I
could have had it for a long time before I
knew I had it. My ex-husband cheated on
me and that is where I believe I
contracted it I had no other partners.
It was almost two years after my
separation that I found out I had it. My
b/f was tested and he was negative and we
had been sleeping together for almost a
year. Your partner should get tested.
If he does have it and does not get
treated he can pass it right back to you
even if you have been treated. This is
something you don't want to mess with.
If it goes untreated it can affect your
reproductive organs.
