actually all you have to do is call your provider, let them know your partner has been diagnosed with chlamydia and they should be able to call you in a prescription. most providers don't even bother with partner testing for chlamydia and just go ahead and treat.

would save you an appointment :)

ugh!

Unfortunately EPT (that your partner can bring you medication) is prohibited in your state.  

You are going to have to test before any medication is given to you so the answer is going to be NO he can't treat you directly.   Ask her/him first w/out a test, let me know what he says I'd like to know.

To anyone else interested see Table 2:
