Question 1

how is it that my partner tested negative for chlamydia(i seen the results)&i tested positive when i have only been with one man&thats him?

Accepted Answer

May be the test...: False negative and false positive tests do occur.  The test can also be performed in different ways (urine or direct swabs of the genital organs).  Some forms of the test are more sensitive (identify more infections) than other tests.  Discuss with your doctor if it makes sense to repeat one or both partners tests for clarification of this important issue.

Question 2

i was tested positive for chlamydia but my recent partner was tested negative and i had one unprotected partner before him how am i the only positive 1?

Accepted Answer

Previous partner?: You had one previous partner before your current partner according to your note --- so one would surmise that he is the source of your chlamydia infection since your current partner tested negative.

Question 3

one month gf had trich & bv. got it cleared. now has chlamydia. both of us been tested and were neg previous. have been faithful, false positive?

Accepted Answer

Hard to say....: If in doubt retest, if positive  get treated. It is hard to determine when infection occurred. The accuracy of a test depends on what type of test was done, how specimen was collected and how sensitive / specific the test modality is. It will be good to consult a GYN to guide you with the answers you seek.

Question 4

positive chlamydia test, no std's before and all negative one year ago. if i've only had one sex partner for years- does this mean i got it from them?

Accepted Answer

Yes, most likely: If you tested positive for chlamydia, then you and your partner need to be treated so you do not get reinfected,

Question 5

positive chlamydia test. last std tests negative 1 year ago. only one partner. what is most likely time frame of contraction?

Accepted Answer

Chlamydia: Keep this in mind..males can have chlamydia and be totally asymptomatic.  It can also wax and wane in men.

Question 6

tested positive  chlamydia & negative hiv, gonorrhea &syphilis  was given  one time 2 tablet treatment of azithromycin & week supply erythromycin with serve pains in stomach, pooping & urinating help?

Accepted Answer

Do not take E-mycin: Unfortunately you were given an old medication that is toxic to your body, erythromycin.  But, the Azithromycin was a good choice to treat chlamydia. Since I do not know where you got the Erythromycin or why it was given to you i cannot comment on that. But, the Azithromycin was appropriate.

Question 7

i tested positive for chlamydia and need the one time pill?

Accepted Answer

: HealthTap Prime, the paid portion of Health Tap may be an option to get treatment if you have the written result. If you are established with a primary care doc, that would be even better for continuity of care. Otherwise no prescription can be issued on the free HealthTap platform that is intended for guidance and general education.

Question 8

how can my boyfriend test positive for chlamydia and i tested negative ?

Accepted Answer

Chlamydia test: This situation is pretty common. The tests aren’t perfect, and miss a few infections; you may be infected despite your negative test. Your partner’s test may have been false (rare). The immune system clears chlamydia over time, even without treatment; you may have had it but no longer. Or he caught it from someone else and you didn’t catch it yet. You should assume you have it and get treated.

Question 9

how could i have tested positive for chlamydia when my boyfriend tested negative?

Accepted Answer

Possibilities: Perhaps you have been carrying it for a while.  Are you positive that he tested negative? If that is actually true, maybe you did not transmit it to him.

Question 10

how is it possible that my boyfreind was positive for chlamydia and i am negative?

Accepted Answer

STD: Well, it appears he probably did not get the infection from you. Fortunately, you did not test positive, however, you should not have intercourse with him until he completes his treatment. If you have had unprotected intercourse with him since his diagnosis, you might be safe to get rechecked.
