I had already been experiencing symptoms for more than a week.

Brief Answer:
likely first guy...harbouring chlamydia infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to HCM,
If you had been experiencing symptoms of pain and frequent urination since a week before you had sex on MARCH 27 then it is likely that you may may have contracted it from the second guy more likely but the incubation period of chlamydia can last for more then 2 weeks to 3 weeks as well, that brings the first intercourse on feb 28 also in suspicion.
The best way to find out would be to get your first guy tested for chlamydia and that should solve your concern.
I hoep i have answered your query,
Regards
