Why do partners and ex-partners need to be involved?
If you have had sex ( anal, oral or vaginal) with this person they may have chlamydia

What will happen if my partner/ partners are not told?

• You may become re-infected if you have sex with them again.
• They may pass the infection on to others.
• Both men and women may develop serious health problems including infertility ( being unable to have a baby).

How do I tell them?
We understand that it can seem daunting to talk about something so personal. The nurse/ health advisor can help you find the best way to approach your partner.

What if I don’t wish to tell them myself?
The Health advisor can arrange to do this for you in a confidential way without mentioning your name.
