No only if you ask your Dr to check for it.

No. But during the pelvic exam your practitioner may note discharge and cervical redness and test you then. But it would be a swab and not the same test as the pap smear.

A Pap will indicate abnormality but isn't a specific test. It is a screening tool for cervical cancer. If you feel you may have been exposed and wish to be screened for chlamydia then you must request it

They have to run a specific test for it, a routine pap will not tell you if you have it or not. You usually have to ask the doctor to test you for it.

Yes, an exam by your GYN should be able to tell you if you have chlamydia. You should ask for it to be tested specifically.
