Today I found out I have Chlamydia... I am so embarrassed. I'm not the girl that sleeps around, but I'm not a virgin either. I don't know if my boyfriend got it from his past and gave it to me or if I got it from my past. Have any of y'all ever had it?

Question

Answer

I've had it! When my doctor told me I was like "is that something that will like.. Go away? ...Will I have it forever?" I had no idea what it was! Be very thankful that it wasn't anything more serious & isn't something you'll have forever. I was thanking god that it was treatable. I didn't have sex for a year cause I was so nervous I would get something worse.

Answer

Nothing to be ashamed of. It doesn't mean you're dirty. Everything's okay

Answer

I've never had it but I can tell you that you become symptomatic within 7-21 days from contact usually. So, typically it's not something that you'd have for a year and it just now randomly showing signs. It's essentially from whomever you've had sex with within the past 7-21 days

Answer

I had it when I met my husband. My previous boyfriend had given it to me after he cheated.. Well I didn't know I had it until after I had met my husband (bf at the time). That was years ago now and I'm not embarrassed. I was at the time though, I felt so awful, but honestly, it's treatable and it's really not that uncommon. Hope you feel better soon. Xo

Answer

It's a very common STD! I had it and took anti biotics my doctor prescribed and when I was tested again it was gone. Nothing to be afraid of! You just want to get it taken care of right away and everything should be fine.

Answer

Nothing to be ashamed of! I had it and I have so hurt because I trusted the person and scared and said I wouldn't have sex anymore and my Moma made me feel better! But the crazy part was that we used the condom but the doctor said it probably was old sadly!

Answer

i knew a friend that got it n it was from someone they slept with who use to sleep around.. so luckily theres treatment but i guess b careful who u mess with in the future
