And you have a million questions running through your head: Does this mean the end of your sex life? Is she cheating on me? Will we ever be able to have a baby?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chlamydia, or any other sexually transmitted infection, does not have to mean the end of intimacy. Like any other problem in life, there are right ways and wrong ways to deal with the situation. In this article, we\u2019ll discuss chlamydia and what to do when it happens to you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>What\u2019s Chlamydia?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted infection <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/std\/chlamydia\/stdfact-chlamydia-detailed.htm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">caused by bacteria<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It affects both women and men, but it\u2019s more dangerous for the ladies. Chlamydia may affect your plans of starting a family in the future.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some people never have any symptoms. For others, the infection will look like a urinary tract infection. Sometimes there\u2019s some genital discharge or pain when peeing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>How Common Is Chlamydia?<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chlamydia is a common STI. According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), in 2018 alone, approximately four million people in the United States <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/std\/statistics\/prevalence-2020-at-a-glance.htm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">got infected<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with the disease.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chlamydia is known as a silent infection. This means that many people who have it don&#8217;t see any symptoms. Some find out during routine sexual health screening. Many women realize they have chlamydia when fertility problems arise.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32845\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32845\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/2.jpeg-13_11zon-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32845\" title=\"Couple looking with sadness at a pregnancy test\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/2.jpeg-13_11zon-1.jpg\" alt=\"Couple looking with sadness at a pregnancy test\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/2.jpeg-13_11zon-1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/2.jpeg-13_11zon-1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32845\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Chlamydia may affect a woman\u2019s ability to get pregnant<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>How Can You Get Chlamydia?<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted infection. It can affect you regardless of your sexual orientation. People usually get infected with chlamydia by having:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unprotected vaginal intercourse<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unprotected anal sex<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oral sex or rimming (oral-anal stimulation)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Is Chlamydia Treatable?<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The good news is that chlamydia is treatable with antibiotics. But if you or your partner have had the infection for some time, treatment will not remove the potential negative effects of the disease.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, if a woman had chlamydia for a few months without getting diagnosed, the infection might have caused serious damage to her reproductive organs. Even if she got treatment later, she may still have problems getting pregnant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another not-so-nice thing about chlamydia is that it\u2019s not a one-and-done kind of disease. You can get infected and treated, only to be infected again later in your life. That\u2019s why it\u2019s important that both partners receive medication, as it reduces the risk of passing chlamydia back and forth between you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How STIs Affect Your Relationship<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learning that one partner has an STI can be very stressful for a couple. It can raise concerns about fidelity. You may worry if you&#8217;ll ever be able to enjoy intimacy again.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>If My Partner Has Chlamydia, Does It Mean They Cheated?<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For many guys, the first reaction after their partner tells them they have chlamydia is \u201cThey must have cheated.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you jump to conclusions, know that chlamydia can go undetected for a long time. It&#8217;s possible that your partner got it from someone a while ago, before you two even met. Another option is that <\/span><b>you <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">had chlamydia and didn\u2019t know about it and infected your partner with it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32844\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32844\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/3.jpeg-12_11zon-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32844\" title=\"Frustrated couple\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/3.jpeg-12_11zon-1.jpg\" alt=\"Frustrated couple\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/3.jpeg-12_11zon-1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/3.jpeg-12_11zon-1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32844\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>If your partner has chlamydia, it doesn\u2019t necessarily mean she\u2019s cheating<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>STIs and Fertility<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Untreated chlamydia can wreak havoc on a woman&#8217;s reproductive system. An infection she had as a young adult may smash her hopes of starting a family later in life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s important that you and your partner get tested for chlamydia at least once. If you both stay monogamous afterward, there&#8217;s no risk of getting infected. But first, you need to make sure you don&#8217;t carry a hidden infection from previous sexual contacts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Sex When Your Partner Has Chlamydia<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The golden rule of sex if your<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> partner has chlamydia<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: You should both get treated. Until you\u2019ve cleared the infection, avoid intercourse (vaginal or anal) and oral sex.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Communication Is Key<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s never too late to start talking about sexual health with your partner. Some STIs (such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/std-sexually-transmitted-diseases-treatments\/how-can-genital-herpes-be-prevented-and-treated\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">herpes<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) never fully go away and you have to learn to minimize the risk of infection. With chlamydia, you only need to abstain from sex until the end of treatment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are not in an exclusive relationship, discuss safety rules. For example, some couples have sex without condoms and barriers but agree to practice safer sex with all other sexual partners.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Sexual Health Testing<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should both get a clean bill of health in the beginning of your relationship. If you haven\u2019t done that and you would like to skip condoms, it\u2019s time to get a full STI checkup. The same applies if you want to try to have a baby. Some clinics may not include a chlamydia test for guys in their routine panel, so make sure to ask for it specifically.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re not monogamous, agree on how often you both will get screened for STIs. If you notice suspicious symptoms, go to the doctor to make sure it\u2019s safe to have sex. In many cases, the itching or weird genital discharge will be a sign of a mild urinary tract infection, not an STI, but these, too, require medical attention.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32843\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32843\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/4.jpeg-6_11zon-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-32843\" title=\"Male patient at doctor's office\" src=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/4.jpeg-6_11zon-1.jpg\" alt=\"Male patient at doctor's office\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/4.jpeg-6_11zon-1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/4.jpeg-6_11zon-1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32843\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>If your partner has chlamydia, you should also get tested<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Safer Sex<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your partner has chlamydia, follow the doctor\u2019s recommendations about treatment and abstain from sexual contacts until you&#8217;re both healed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the meantime, you can do sensual things without genital contact. For example, give each other a massage or have a nice cuddling session.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t forget to thoroughly clean or sterilize any <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edrugstore.com\/sexual-wellness\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sex toys<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> you\u2019ve been using. Some sex toys can be boiled, and others can be washed with soap and water. There are also special toy cleaning sprays available.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Protect Your Sexual Health<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chlamydia may seem like a mild nuisance, but it\u2019s a serious disease. It can lead to infertility in women (and in rare cases, men too). Moreover, untreated chlamydia can increase your risk of getting HIV.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To protect your health and fertility, always check suspicious symptoms with a doctor and get treatment if necessary. Don\u2019t forget to manage ongoing STIs, as they will make you more vulnerable to other infections.
