does chlamidya live in the body after u been treated?


Question:


Answers:
No. Chlamydia is fortunately an STD that can be cured. Taking the full treatment of antibiotics actually kills the bacteria, getting completely rid of it.

The only STDs that actually stay in your body are the ones that can NOT be cured such as herpes, hepatitis, HIV, and HPV. Medication can treat the symptoms but the virus itself will always be in that person.

So, if a person is in a committed relationship and all of a sudden contracts an STD like chlamydia either their partner cheated, got it, and brought it home to them, or that person never realized they had it and never got treated for it and then passed it on to their partner. 2/3 of women and 1/2 of men who have chlamydia have no symptoms at all; others have symptoms so mild they aren't noticeable.
Chlamydia, fortunately is a curable, treatable STD. No it does not live in the body once treated. You must ensure you take all the medicine they prescribe you or it's possible that it didn't go away. If you feel as if you still have it, go back and get re-checked. Not getting tested and hanging on to chlamydia can cause a lot of internal problems if not treated immediately...infertility, and many others.
