Delayed Chlamydia Symptoms

Chlamydia - I was diagnosed with this recently about a week after having unprotected sex with a new partner and showing symptoms associated with the disease.  She swears that she could not have the infection depsite being tested positive after I gave her my results, and is saying that I must have given it to her.

I had not had sex with anyone prior to her for about 6 weeks (and that was with a regular partner) and had never had the symptoms before.   Is it feasible that I have had chlamydia for some time and coincidentally only displayed the symptoms after a six week period, and within a few days of having sex with this person?

Many thanks!

PS - why are the only topic options available HIV related??

if you were treated for clamydia (chlamydia) then possible she had it prior to you. drhhh says, clamydia (chlamydia) resolves byitself in 3 mos.

Chlamydia symptoms typically appear within one to three weeks after a person becomes infected. Early symptoms of the disease can include pain while urinating and abnormal discharge (mucus or pus) from the vagina or penis. If left untreated, the chlamydia infection may move inside the body, possibly causing pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in women and epididymitis in men. PID is very serious because it can cause scarring of the fallopian tubes (which can lead to infertility), as well as a condition called ectopic or tubal pregnancy (which can be fatal to the mother). In men, untreated chlamydial infections can potentially cause pain, fever, and sterility. However, not everyone with the infection experiences chlamydia symptoms. In fact, chlamydia is sometimes called the "silent" disease, since you can have it and not know it.

""if you were treated for clamydia (chlamydia) then possible she had it prior to you. drhhh says, clamydia (chlamydia) resolves byitself in 3 mos."" stated above is not true to my understanding.

Clamydia (chlamydia) does not resolve itself in 3 months and can stay in your system for years until you treat it properly.
