Chlamydia is known as a "silent" disease because about three quarters of infected women and about half of infected men have no symptoms. If symptoms do occur, they usually appear within 1 to 3 weeks after exposure. It is possible for it to go unrecognized which is why he wasn't tested in the first place. Men with signs or symptoms might have a discharge from their penis or a burning sensation when urinating. Men might also have burning and itching around the opening of the penis, which is why it's often confused with a UTI and never diagnosed. Any sexually active person can be infected with chlamydia. The greater the number of sex partners, the greater the risk of infection. Because the cervix (opening to the uterus) of teenage girls and young women is not fully matured, they are at particularly high risk for infection if sexually active. Since chlamydia can be transmitted by oral or anal sex, men who have sex with men are also at risk for chlamydial infection.

2 0Yea I agree that def sounds fishy to me. Why risk it? I'd dump him if I were you, I don't think you'd ever completely trust him after this.You've even said yourself "He'd never tell me if he cheated" so I don't think you trust him already. Unless you're deeply in love, this would be a good time to break it off.
1 0 0 0So true. That statement says it all. It is possible you have a resistance to it, but it is unlikely. I had sex with my boyfriend who had chlamydia, once, without protection, and I caught it straight away.
I had symptoms about a week after but I thought i either had a UTI or a BV but i was wrong I went in and got tested and was positive I slept with my ex bf when he was in town but he tested negative with is weird because I haven't slept with anyone else
