hi there,
i went and had my sti tests done last week and the doctor had a look inside me too before taking swabs. she said every 'looked' fine.
im pleased to say that all the test were negative apart from the chlamydia. which i am now about to be treated for.
but what i was wondering is, when she had a look around inside me would she have been able to see if there was any damage caused by the chlamydia if i have happened to have had it for a number of years??? and if i have had it a long time will the pills be affective??
ive never had any symptoms apart from having cystitus once or twice.
hope this makes sense!! :-)

If she were just looking around while taking a swab, she would only have been able to see your vagina and cervix. Long-term damage from chlamydia usually occurs in the fallopian tubes which there's no way she would have been able to see from looking in your vagina. (It can also damage other parts, but again, parts not visible via the vagina.)
The pills should work regardless of how long you may have had it.
