Just recently, me & my boyfriend were diagnosed with Chlamydia. I got treated one week before him...on a Tuesday & was told to wait 2 weeks before having sex again. I did. He got treated a week or so after me but we ended up having sex (with a condom) during the 2 week period he was taking his medication. Is it possible that he could still have the disease? Im afraid now because since then, we've had sex again (with a condom) but we also gave each other oral sex :'( I don't know what to think...please help me. Thanks in advance!
Basically, if you had sex while wearing a condom, you haven't traded bodily fluids, and so, probably have not passed the germ back and forth.
The reason why you are told not to have sex, is so that you won't pass the infection. You did right. He, if he had a condom, would be alright also.
However, if you went down on him, without a condom, you may have picked up the bug from his naked penis, and you could be right back where you were before.
You need to ask a doctor or your medical clinic where you were treated, what this means.
Next time, finish your treatment before either of you engage in any behavior that could pass it to another.
PS: Do you know how you two picked it up in the first place? That would seem to be a real important fact to know.

Well, we didn't have oral sex while he was still taking his medication...only sex with a condom. I was just wondering if he still had the infection even though we had sex during his medication. The oral sex came after his 2 week period of medication. & no, we don't know where we contracted the disease from. We broke up for a while & both of us had sex with another partner during that time.
