How Can Chlamydia Be Treated?

Around a month ago I was treated for chlamydia with the 1 dose of 4 antibiotics.. it is recommended you wait a week until having intercourse again.. I waited 8 days and used a condom and every so often I still notice a discharge.. could it be possible the antibiotics didn't work.. or could it be something like a test infection from the antibiotics.. I have ordered another chlamydia test and am waiting for it to come to read test anyway...

Hi i do care for your concern.
You have received the treatment for chlamydia and have completed the course.
Most of the time these drugs are effective to treat the infection.
In case of chlamydia the other partner should also be tested and treated for the same.
I would advise
To have your partner tested and if found positive have to undergo treatment by taking the medications.
In your case since you are having discharge, again test for chlamydia and get medicines from your physician.
Hope everything gets well soon.
Hope i have answered your question, if you have more feel free to ask.
Thank you.
