Chlamydia and Gonorrhea are sexually transmitted infections. These both are stds that you get from oral, anal, or vaginal sex. They are caused by bacteria. If you think you have one of these, you need to get tested, get the results and they will issue you an antibiotc and it will be gone in a week or so. Ask for testing for sexually transmissible infections; a Pap smear will not detect gonorrhea or chlamydia.
