Well we all know that condoms provide great protection but not 100%, you should be fine as long as the condom didn't break. I do suggest follow up testing a month after your treatment to ensure the infection has cleared... Chlamydia can cause sever damage to the reproductive organs so a follow up test would be good .

Try not to have any sex until 7 days after treatment.
