 Posted: 08/07/06 - 23:00 Post subject: Chlamydia Treatment with Doxycycline |
  |
|
My partner has Chlamydia. His doctor prescribed him doxycycline. I probably have Chlamydia. Should I take the same drug? Can this drug cure Chlamydia?

You can’t use any medication, neither doxycycline before you examined by doctor... If, you have Chlamydia your doctor will prescribe medication. Chlamydia can be treated with antibiotics such as azithromycin (Zithromax) or doxycycline (Doryx). If your partner receives treatment for Chlamydia, do not have sex until at least a week after both of you have been treated. Partners should be examined by a doctor to check if they require treatment too.

Well I would suggest that your first thought should be that you should have learnt your lesson about unprotected sex! It is possible that you could have infected him although unlikely. But you dont know what he could have infected you with.
Presumably you contracted Chlamydia through unprotected sex so there is a good chance that you could now be reinfected, or have picked up any of a number of other STDs
CONDOMS, easy to get hold of, easy to use and stop a hell of alot of trips to the Clap Clinic.
I have just found out that my partner has Chlamydia, I insisted we both have a full check up before we had unprotected sex. I was checking out whether the treatment he has been given is effective. I suggest that you do the same before you have unprotected sex again. |

| I had chlamydia and my doctor prescribed doxycycline. Both, me and my partner started taking the medication the same day. After about a week of taking doxycycline my partner performed oral sex on me is there any chance that the medicine did not work on me. It was oral sex only. |

|
|
| I'm a healthcare professional. If ever you suspect you have any type of STD, you should always consult your doctor. Testing is imperative to proper treatment of any type of STD. Even though you know you have clamidia. You may of had it before and are familiar with the symptoms, but certain antibiotics aren't for everyone. Doxyclycline and Suprax are the most common antibiotics to treat clamidia and gonorrhea. Clamidia doesn't cure itself. If you don't have symptoms, it may mean it went dormant; But, you still have it in your system. If left untreated, it will create a more serious threat to your health; ie: PID, sterility and other reproductive problems in the future. You will also pass it on to all your sexual partners. Taking someone elses antibiotics is one of the worst things you can do. If the cost of going to the doctor is the reason you want to do this, I'm sure there are plenty of free clinics in your area... do some research... |
