Want to answer more questions in the Sexual Health and Reproduction category?
Maybe give some free advice about: STD Information?
This one really needs a test to be certain. Don't assume that no symptoms mean no infection and let it ride. It's not incurable. But it is in your best interests to get it sorted quickly. Many people have it for a long time, undiagnosed and thus untreated. Don't be one of those people. Arrange a test. STI's are just like any other infection to a medical professional and you should think likewise. Get a check, if you've got it...get it sorted in other words.

Hi there! Let's take this step-by-step!
What is chlamydia?
Chlamydia is a common STD that can infect both men and women. It can cause serious, permanent damage to a woman's reproductive system, making it difficult or impossible for her to get pregnant later on. Chlamydia can also cause a potentially fatal ectopic pregnancy (pregnancy that occurs outside the womb).
How is chlamydia spread?
You can get chlamydia by having vaginal, anal, or oral sex with someone who has chlamydia.
If your sex partner is male you can still get chlamydia even if he does not ejaculate (cum).
If you’ve had chlamydia and were treated in the past, you can still get infected again if you have unprotected sex with someone who has chlamydia.
If you are pregnant, you can give chlamydia to your baby during childbirth.
Women with symptoms may notice
An abnormal vaginal discharge;
A burning sensation when urinating.
Symptoms in men can include
A discharge from their penis;
A burning sensation when urinating;
Pain and swelling in one or both testicles (although this is less common).
Men and women can also get infected with chlamydia in their rectum, either by having receptive anal sex, or by spread from another infected site (such as the vagina). While these infections often cause no symptoms, they can cause
Rectal pain;
Discharge;
Bleeding.
You should be examined by your doctor if you notice any of these symptoms or if your partner has an STD or symptoms of an STD, such as an unusual sore, a smelly discharge, burning when urinating, or bleeding between periods.
Can chlamydia be cured?
Yes, chlamydia can be cured with the right treatment. It is important that you take all of the medication your doctor prescribes to cure your infection. When taken properly it will stop the infection and could decrease your chances of having complications later on. Medication for chlamydia should not be shared with anyone.
Repeat infection with chlamydia is common. You should be tested again about three months after you are treated, even if your sex partner(s) was treated.
