Help! My Girlfriend Has Given Me An STD!

Hey

My girlfriend told me last night that she took a smear test and the results revealed that she had chlamydia, I've been with her now for like 6-7 months and I'm pretty sure I have it too. I felt like punching the bitch when she told me, but she explained she only been with 2 guys this year; me and some dude on a one-night-stand, the poor girl was in tears. Anyway I experienced a stinging feeling when I took a piss a few months back but the pain stopped so I ignored it (stupid I know)

Anyways this was in like June, I'm goin to a clinic on Monday to get some antibiotics to treat it but I have no idea about this shit (always asleep in sex-ed classes), and I'm fucking scared that I won't be able to have kids, I'm only 21 are my days of random bareback shagging over?? I'm also worried about my health, what are the long-term side-effects??

Thanks, RugbyNut

Fortunately for you chlamydia can be completely cured. Get on your anti-biotics and you will be fine. There are no long term side effects. Do yourself a favour, do a search on google on the topic and further educate yourself.

If it's just chlamydia you've got, you should be OK since it responds very well to antibiotics. But it's important that you take the whole course of treatment and also, of course, that your girlfriend is treated too or else she'll just re-infect you. (Even if she's been treated in the past, you are likely to have re-infected her.) And you'll need to use condoms until you're both in the clear to avoid re-infecting each other again.

You should also inform any other partners you've had since you started with this girl, too.

The chances that it will affect your ability to have kids are minute, but if you're worried, mention it at the clinic. They won't mind your asking questions. With proper treatment it is unlikely to have any long-term effects on you health - but again, ask if you're worried.

Riding bareback with someone unless you know for a fact that she's clear of STDs is never a good idea. I hope that's not one of the take-home messages that you were sleeping through!

Anyway, good luck on Monday!

Thanks a lot for the advice bros, I'll get searching now.

Incidentally what do you think I should do? I really like her and she told me that she doesn't want to lose me either but all I can think about is her fucking that other guy (after we met but before we were oficially "together") like a fuckin whore. I couldn't touch her last night it kinda disgusts me.

She apologised while in floods of tears, is she genuine or just another slut?

What should I do?

Thanks, RugbyNut

be proud it wasnt genital warts...my cousin got those and she has those for the rest of her life....when she has a kid she has to have a c secion because of the fear that she will pass it on to her baby....
but then i had a friend that her hubby was a jerk..and she got crabs from him....and he tried to tell her she got them off of a toilet seat...and i think at first she believed him. I felt sorry for her...but she got rid of those too. Good luck

Right, chlamydia can be cured with anti-biotics. I've had it a couple of times (fortunately I haven't caught anything else). If I got it from my girlfriend though, I would tell her to hit the road, if she caught from someone WHILE dating me.

I'd be pissed she didn't use protection on the one night stand! but mistakes happen, you'll be fine and there is a lesson to be learned. Be glad it wasn't something much worse.

If you really like her, stick with her. That's my advice. If she fucked the other guy before you were "officially together", then I don't see that as a reason to dump her. It would have been good if she'd insisted that he use a condom, but that's a different matter. We all live and learn, and you can just be grateful that it's not something much worse than chlamydia.

I agree with the last post. it could have happend the other way around and you could have given it to her. So it really doesn't make her a"slut". I think we can all learn something from this tread!!

Agreed. I never hold a girl's sexual history against her. If she is not sleeping with anyone else, after we agree to only sleep with each other, then it doesn't matter. Besides if she has alot of experience, hopefully she has learned some skills, and I prefer women who are sexually uninhibited, and open to new things. Sexually reserved girls are really not even as good as jerking off.
