∙ 10y agoYes, chlamydia is always curable with antibiotics, no matter how long you had it; however damage caused by chlamydia infection can not be reversed. Treatment failure is quite rare. It's more common for someone infected with chlamydia to get reinfected soon after, perhaps because partners didn't finish treatment before they had sexual contact again, or perhaps from a new partner. That is the reason that retesting for chlamydia is recommended three months after treatment.
