A member asked:
Can a man transmit chlamydia and still test negative for the bacteria? i tested positive and he negative.

Either : Either men or women can carry chlamydia for a time period and not be aware that they have it. Laboratory testing is not always 100% accurate, depending on the sample swab, and chlamydia can go undetected if the laboratory swab isn't a good sample.

Depends : It depends on the adequacy of the sample and testing method.
