Chlamydia - and male STD

---

ok, im very new to this, but i thought i need to post to answer a couple of questions in my mind.my gf has Chlamydia and she may have given it to me.Im going to see a doc just to be safe, but ive got a smallish pimple like thing on the edge of my foreskin.ideaS?

i have a question, why would you continually have intercourse with a person that you know has the chlamydia?

Im not!Ive ceased having sex with her, until she has it sorted.

no, no, i understand that, but did u have the slightest idea while she was having sex with you? becuz if i'm not mistaken, either you had it and you gave it to her, or...she was cheating on you while y'all were dating, or. she got it before you guys had sex, in which you still had sex with her, while she had it...and she must've known, the clap is not something that is mistaken easily for something else, it produces nasty discharge most of the time. it's a pretty nasty disease.

only just started seeing her, and she recently had some tests come back, positive to chlamydia. she neglected to tell me this until now.so yes, she had it before i started seeing her.and no i didnt know she had it until she told me when she got her tests back today.

Damn dude, that sux, but it's all good, just see a doctor, he'll provide anti bacterial cream, and another thing, did you have unprotected sex? i can't remember if you said it already.

nope, used protection.Like its not certain ive got it, but id rather be safe than sorry.yeah it does suck.should i dump her or what?

naw, you don't have to dump her, just i would avoid heavy sexual intimacy until she's 100% clean, and still, i'd get looked at. that bump may be nothing, it may be everything. as you are still uncut, and i have no experience with foreskin, i can't even fathom if it's normal to have that bump...so, yeah, stay with her, she's probly embarrassed right now, so she may need you right now. and not intercourse, protected or unprotected.

yeah cheers for the advice dude.
:wink:

no problem

You so need to dump her. If she got tested she wasn't 100% sure she wasn't good to go. She obviously had some question in her mind. And exposed you to whatever she may have had. She should have waited for the results before having sex with you. It sounds to me like she isn't concerned with your well being. What if she turned up HIV positive? Would you still be with her? Because she could have just as easily had that instead of Chlamydia. You need to think with the head on your shoulders not the one in your pants or the heart in your chest.

she probably didn't think it was an issue because they used protection.

women can go years without knowing they have it, it often produces no symptoms in women

Yes that's true,guys as well, but i think by the time they had had sex, she might have had a few symptoms, which is why she chose to get looked at.

actually she probably didn't, most women hardly ever have any symptoms, it causes a lot of infertility in women because women can go all their adult life without ever having symptoms, and if they do they're very minor and mistaken for a urinary tract infection, plus most gynos don't even check for it

but that's the question, why else would she have chosen to get tested?

because that's what women do every year, they go for their annual gyno visit, scary, but some gynos don't always test for std's, and if they do the only test for specific ones, chlamydia is often not tested for even though it's the most common std

i think i should clear things up.She had the test before we got together.her tests came back after we had had sex.she had tests because she wanted to be safe and was part of a normal checkup.i did contemplate dumping her, but we have always used protection. and i am not showing symptons, nor was she.i have been to the doc - i am very healthy, and blood tests back in a week.She told me very honestly about her sex life and history, but i am a very careful person.

well like i have been saying, she was probably competely unaware that she had it

how can you be certain a girl you are having sex with doesnt have an STD. I mean id feel really bad saying to my girlfriend, 'have you been tested for STD's because I really dont want to catch anything!' i had a nightmare i had clamidia (sorry about the spelling) once and it scared the hell out of me, is there treatment and stuff to totally stop it or like control it - STD's totally scare me good luck with the blood tests man...
