Q: i am being tested for chlamydia, if the result is positive how is it possible as me and my partner were both virgins when we met and havent cheated. so how could it be possible?

: It is very rare for this to occur. One way is thru oral sex- but one partner has to have it and rarer is thru using an object eg a towel etc right after an infected person used it lastly a false positive result. Suggest have test repeated. Good luck
