Simple Question about Re-Infection
I'm wondering if a person can
1) become infected and show no symptoms of an infection (chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, HPV, etc.)
2) infect your partner with the infection
3) be re-infected with the same strain of infection from your now symptomatic, infected partner and
4) only then, upon re-infection, do you show symptoms of infection.
Please let me know

2. Three months later, A has vaginal sex with B
3. B catches chlamydia from A and developes symtoms
4. A has vaginal sex with B again before B's symptoms are full blown
5. A now developes chlamydia symtoms
