me and my girlfriend have been together for 10 years now is it possible to have Chlamydia with no symptons fo this long

hi i have been told by fertility clinic i have had chlamdia but my body immune system has cleared this up i am worried as i thought you could only get treatment and clear it up. They also told me my tubes will be scarred but i had no tests can you help

Hi, I am 30 yearls old. A couple of months ago I had unprotected anal sex followed by vaginal sex immediately after. Stupid I know. About a week after I started to get a green/yellowish discharge which lasted for about 6 weeks. Along with this I have been suffering with constant lower back back pain and sore throat. Although the discharge has now gone I still have the lower back pain. Intercourse is also quite uncomfortable. I also keep getting thrush. I haven't had a test as I am very embarrassed to see my GP. From the symptoms above, is there a chance I may have chlamydia?

will i get chlamydia if i have protected sex with someone who has chlamydia?

hi there, ive been with my boyfriend about 4 yr now an i cheated on him about three year ago an i got clymadia i got rid of it an the doctors said i was clear but all of a sudden im getting whit discharge an it smells abit funny but before me n my boyfriend have sex i dont smell an then after i do so please help me

i am a 27 yr old gay man and have found a white headed spot on my left testicle and have never ntoiced this before i have not had un protected sex had have my regular check up's at my gu clinc and never had anything in my life

My question is almost th same as another post I've seen. I had chlamydia a few years ago and rom what I found out frommy ex partner I could of had t for upto a year. I am so scared of being infertile but from what I have been tod there i no way of telling unless you are unsuccesful at concieving. Is this true?

Hi, with my previous sexual partners i have always used protection, but with my current partner we arn't but i was his first. Is it still possible to get Chlamydia even though i'm his first and i've always used protection in the past?
Any advice would be appriciated, thanks.
