A member asked:

Is it likely for me to test positive for chlamydia and my partner not to?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: It is possible that one partner have a positive test for chlamydia and the other is negative; however, both partners should be treated when one is positive, regardless the test result for the other partner.
