Is It True That Chlamydia Clears By Itself In Men?

Hello. I read that guys bodies can actually clear itself of Chlamydia. Is this true? I ask because I have only been with 2 guys and recently tested positive. However my current boyfriend tested negative and my ex of almost 4 yrs told me he was just tested 4 weeks ago and he is clear. I'm really stumped as to how I got this. Please help.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Spontaneous cure in Chlamydia in men is not correct.
Two possibilities are there.
1.It may remain without any symptoms and likely to be missed in the diagnosis. A repeat procedure may likely to be positive.
2.Treatment taken for some other conditions with antibiotics like Azithromycine would lead to a cure.
