A member asked:

I got tested 12 days after a potential chlamydia exposure and i tested negative. would this test be almost 100% accurate?

Specializes in Infectious Disease

Chlamydia treatment: The tests are very good but not perfect: some people are infected even with negative tests. All people sexually exposed to a partner with chlamydia should be treated, whether or not her or his own test is positive. Good luck.
