Answers:
In men, chlamydia is the most common cause of urethral discharge from the penis.

Sometimes chlamydia can cause mild irritation at the end of the penis, which disappears after two or three days. Many men suffering some discomfort will just wait to see if it goes away.

Unfortunately, the discomfort may disappear but the infection can still be present. They can, therefore, transmit it to a sexual partner and also risk the complication of inflamed and swollen testicles.

Chlamydial infection can affect sperm function and fertility in men. Chlamydia has too often been publicised as a problem that only affects women. Nothing could be further from the truth.


Use condoms and before you stop using them, make sure you and your partner get checked out for STDs by your local GUM clinic or GP.


If you have concerns, act on them and get yourself checked out.


Make sure your friends have heard about the infection and its consequences. Encourage them to get a checkup if they think they may be at risk.

If you are infected, make sure your sexual partner gets treatment. Otherwise, the untreated partner just becomes re-infected. Repeated infection can cause far worse fertility problems in women.


If possible, encourage your ex-partners to take get tested, because this infection can stay unrecognised for months, if not years.


Antibiotics will effectively treat chlamydia.
