A member asked:

How is it possible that i tested positive for chlamydia but my boyfriend tested negative? i had a pap and he did urine test.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Treat regardless: I think he should be treated even if he tested negative. Probably a poor sample. Assuming you two are intimate.
