Hello and welcome to HCM.
Thank you for your query.
Chlamydia once diagnosed is treated with antibiotics, depending on the individuals sensitivity to a particular antibiotic, different patients require different antibiotic therapy. If your symptoms still exist then there could be a chance that you were resistant to the antibiotics prescribed. Discuss the same with your doctor and start on an antibiotic which you are sensitive to. You could also request for pain management from the same doctor.
In every patient diagnosed with chlamydia, the sexual partner is also advised a course of antibiotics, but not without the healthcare providers examination first.
I hope I have succeeded in answering your questions, you could write back to me anytime for further clarifications.
Best wishes.
