mar 2019 ( 3 yrs ago) - stripper gave HJ with saliva, saliva was in contact directly with urethra. 3 months later had normal physical and urinalysis, all normal. 18months later ( sept 2020 ) wife goes to OB and tells him we are going to try for a baby. he said went ahead and did some of the prenatal testing ( including chyl/gono ) both came out negative for her test. 4 months AFTER baby is born so almost 2.5 years after the strip club visit,  she has some pale yellow discharge for a day or so.( her OB said could be ovulation starting back and wasnt concerned as long as it didnt smell painful/burn etc ) then 2 months after she has discharge I have a few days of burning at the tip of my penis only during urinations, no discharge at all. few days after burning stopped went and got naat test, negative for chly/gono. just a few weeks ago wife has pelvic exam with yearly pap no issues where found and pap was normal. i only concerned with Chlamydia. questions: 1) I know chlamydia is not as rare in the throat as once believed but still not common. what are the odds of it being transmitted through spit? also how rare is it in throat? 10% 1% less? also Dr hook stated new research  found in the throat its not "vaiable" would that mean most of the time when its present its not transmittable? it detectable but not a TRUE infection that's active?  2) we always had unprotected sex BUT i always pulled out. when she was tested for chy we weren't trying for a baby yet so I was still pulling out. if I wasn't ejaculating in her could I have transmitted it? what are the odds of this? me having it for 18 months without sym. but not giving to her yet bc I was pulling out? can it transmit without ejaculation. then giving to her after I start to cum inside for pregnancy but i cleared it by the time i tested and she still has the infection? 3)what are the odds i would have it without symptoms for 18 months before her test? how long can it be asymptotic? forever? or will you eventual get them?

Welcome to our firm. Thanks for your questions. I hope the answers I’m about to provide will provide you with the reassurance you need. You have provided abundant evidence above that you did not acquire chlamydia through the low risk encounters you describe years ago and there is no evidence that your wife was infected either. You both of been tested with some of the most sensitive tests for detection of micro organisms in all of medicine (NAATs tests) and had negative results. Those results should be believed. Without background let’s go to your specific questions:---

Dr hook, thank you for the reply. The reason my concern has come to me after all this time is because of the recent symptoms in my wife and I. Yellow vaginal discharge ( sign of chy) then 2 months later I have a burning sensation on urination ( another std sign) with chlamydia commonly being asymptotic this started my recent fears. Just to clarify a few things. I know in science and medicine you can never say never but your best educated guess from your knowledge what do you think the chances are of the following: which is my concern based of the recent symptoms as a couple we have had. My concern is I didn’t transmit it to my wife until after she was tested then i gave to her, she has yellow discharge etc. she gave it back to me and that’s why I burned etc but I waited a few days after the burning stopped to get tested so couldn’t I have cleared it again? Not showing positive on test when I took the test? And she still has an active infection? What are the odds of this in your eyes as an expert in this field? I know you cant say 0 bc I could also be stuck by lighting BUT is it the similar odds.? I just thinks it’s wired we both had symptoms of an std around the same time. Also she has some irregularities to her cycle after the baby but then again I know that can be normal after birth. Trying to put all possibilities out of my mind. 

Much of your follow up is repetitive.  The answers will not change, nor will your test results.  Your are seriously overthinking this, perhaps fueled by guilt.  You do not know the stripper had an STI ( and certainly the activity she performed for you was virtually no risk), both your and your wife’s symptoms are nonspecific, and you both have negative tests.  ---

thank you, Dr. Hook. I am pretty sure my wife and I are in the clear based off your statements. I was not trying to over think this, but my only concern was Chlamydia from it being generally being asymptomatic and body able to clear infection naturally. I had come up with a possibility of ping pong it back in forth and since we were tested 18 months apart that maybe it was missed. thanks for clearing it up for me and appreciate your time answering the questions. If I may ask a few questions just for my own knowledge's sake (when trying to research all this on the internet it is amazing how much conflicting information you can get) so wanted to know the facts based off your expertise. (it's hard to get clear answers online) then we can end the thread if that's ok. 

Thanks for your follow-up questions. As you know we provide up to three responses to each clients questions. As this is my third response this will be will conclude this thread which will be closed a few hours after I submit this response:---
