if you can help with chlamydia and hepatitis b…
How much can untreated chlamydia affect the probability of getting hepatitis B when removing or putting on a condom?
Warm greetings.
Thank you

Hi @Marko_Ortiz,
It is understood that if someone has an STI, it increases their risk of getting infected with another STI. It is impossible for me to predict what the chances are here. However, I understand that having an STI does increase ones risk of acquiring another. I recommend the person get treated for chlamydia. It can be treated. I hope this is helpful. Bansah1

Hi @Marko_Ortiz,

As far as I know, there is no relationship between the possibility of getting Hep B after exposure and untreated chlamydia.

A previous post of mine might be helpful as well.

Does Hep B cause people to have chlamydia

Dear @limin, Chlamydia is an infection caused by a bacteria that can be spread by unprotected sex. It is worthwhile getting a test from your doctor (usually swab or urine test) to see if you have been exposed. The infection can be asymptomatic, so you may not feel sick. Treatment/cure is usually pretty easy (oral antibiotics for a week). It doesn’t have any relation to Hepatitis B at all. Hope this helps, Thomas
