HEY- READ THIS
I am a 17 year old female, have been active with my boyfriend for 8 months. I went to see my local GP last week to get a treatment for what I beleived was just a UTI. My only symptoms were frequent urination. After being prescribed an antibiotic, my GP asked a few questions such as if i had any strange discharges, pains, unexplained bleeding, all answers were no. Still she recomended urine testing for a bladder infection and another test for chlamydia.

Dont be afraid of going to the doctor, wouldnt it be more frightening to find out that you have a developed form of chlamydia? one of my girlfriends left it too late and it destroyed her overies.. she is 17 and can never have children..

the doctors see problems like this every day, they are there to help you!! if your worried about your friends or parents finding out, DONT BE because every thing is set up so confidential.. you ring the doctor a few days after they take a urine sample and they will tell you over the phone if it is negative or ask you to come in if it is positive.. if it is positive they just have to give you a antibiotic- just a different one to what they would give someone to treat a UTI.. GET TESTED IF YOUR NOT SURE!! ITS BETTER TO BE SAFE THEN SORRY!!
