Question about Chlamydia?

I just was diagnosed with chlamydia :( I was with someone over the summer and received it from him from performing oral sex on him ( I'm a woman). I've had one new partner this last weekend and used protection, we're wondering if it is possible that chlamydia would be transmitted to him by me performing oral sex on him? You dig? I'm really worried about him becoming infected by me by just the one time we had sex, and want to be able to talk to him about this as a more informed person. I'm going to speak with my doctor tomorrow about all this, I guess I just want some kind of ease of mind.

    Chlamydia infection is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI) in humans caused by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis. The term Chlamydia infection can also refer to infection caused by any species belonging to the bacterial family Chlamydiaceae. C. trachomatis is found only in humans.Chlamydia is a major infectious cause of human genital and eye disease. Chlamydia infection is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections worldwide; it is estimated that about 1 million individuals in the United States are infected with chlamydia.

    C. trachomatis is naturally found living only inside human cells. Chlamydia can be transmitted during vaginal, anal, or oral sex, and can be passed from an infected mother to her baby during vaginal childbirth. Between half and three-quarters of all women who have a chlamydia infection of the neck of the womb (cervicitis) have no symptoms and do not know that they are infected. In men, infection of the urethra (urethritis) is usually symptomatic, causing a white discharge from the penis with or without pain on urinating (dysuria). Occasionally, the condition spreads to the upper genital tract in women (causing pelvic inflammatory disease) or to the epididymis in men (causing epididymitis). If untreated, chlamydial infections can cause serious reproductive and other health problems with both short-term and long-term consequences

    If you went to the doctor and got treated, I don't think there will be a problem.
