A member asked:

What are chlamydia antibodies? does it mean a person is currently infected?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Chlamydia is a bacteria, so antibody testing does not apply. I suspect you are referring to dna testing, which is more reliable than direct cultures and is commonly done off of a pap smear sample. If this is positive you are infected and need to be treated.
