Yes, they most certainly can. Once you’ve been infected, you may notice symptoms come and go somewhat sporadically until treatment is administered. And you may go months or longer after contracting before symptoms are present. Or symptoms may never develop at all. Either way, if you have chlamydia, you are at risk of passing it along to a sexual partner whether or not you are displaying symptoms. While symptoms may subside on their own, make no mistake, the infection will not. You’ll want to get tested and seek treatment as soon as you can before the infection worsens.
