False Negatives for Chlamydia Tests?

the same thingg happened to me not that long ago go i tested positive for clymidia and my partner got tested and his was negative but the doctors with their negative comments just made me more confused they said that thats not possible that my bf did something wrong in his urine and im just so confused cus i know and god knows that i havent been with anyone else ...and the doctor showed me my past tests for clymidia they have always been negative and til in between feb and jan it was positive i dont know if they made a mistake with my test or my bf put something in his urine i need some advice????? :'(

I've always used a condom when having sex with my partner. Recently I went to the doctors n they called me and told me i was positive for chlamydia. I still cant understand why because I havent had sex in 6 months and had no symptoms and used latex condoms. I need to know would being on my period effect a chlamydia test.

I am seeing a pattern here and all over the internet. Me and my partner have had the same complications. She tested positive for chlamydia and i went in and tested negative. We have been together for 5 years and have unprotected sex. How can she have tested positive and i have not. This does not make sense. Are errors really this common in testing. We swear to each other up and down that we have been faithful and beyond that it makes no sense how only one of us can test positive after having so much unprotected sex with one another when chlamydia is one the most contagious stds. I want some real medical answers here instead of the typical doctor response of someone has to be cheating. Obviously there is so many cases that we are sharing online here for most of us to be in honest relationships. I suggest that when u get a positive test and your partner tests negative and you both swear that you have been faithful is to ignore the drugs and go back in and get tested multiple times!!!!!!!!!!! Abstain from sex and then take the pills!!!!!!!

My husband and I are having the same situation I think its weird. Must be some other causes or omething else that make ""positive"" that std

The same thing just happened with me and my boyfriend.  We were both virgins when we started dating so obviously we were both clean at the start of our relationship.  I got a chlamydia test that came back positive and the nurse told me the absolute only explanation was that my boyfriend cheated on me, which I knew he didn't do.  He immediately got treated at a different location and his test came back negative.

same thing happend to me and doctors did the same thing

i went thorugh the same problem a week ago. i have been with my parnet for 6 months and las month i had an abortion. so we havent had sex in 3 weeks due to the procedure. after the 3 weeks we had sex and started having discharge. so we went to a free clinic and got tested.. 2 DAYS later they told him to come in with me and it turned out he was positive and i am negative. i have had chlamydia in the past and it took the clinic atleast a week to call me back to return to the office. not only that but i know my spouse didnt cheat on me i trust him, so how could he have been positive for over 6 months and i never got it? also how could i have gotten pregnant? i read some where online that chlamydia can cause infertility. maybe im wrong but i think its the clinics feeding people drugs that are improperly perscribed. thats just my answer. every post ive read on this topic stated " i took the medication to be safe" but why take it if your negative?

Me and my husband just had a baby in november 2011 - 4 months ago and during my pregnancy I had all my STI tests done and all came back negative. About a week ago I went to the doc for more discharge than usual, but it had no odor, it was clear, just thick. They tested me for everything and a few days later I get the call that I tested positive for chlamydia. My and my husband have been together for 5 years and married when we found out i was pregnant. I have always known and trusted him being faithful. We broke up for about two months two years ago, when i contracted chlamydia really for the first time, and had really bad symptoms - it felt like a really bad bladder infection and there was blood in my urine - so I have been through it and I remember it being really bad. I was treated and checked on on since then and testing negative. Thats the only thing I can tie to all of this other than him cheating... I sent him to be tested as soon as we found out recently and we both just took the antibiotics with out even thinking of retesting. We are waiting on his test results to come back - which i am hoping are negative so then I KNOW no one did anything because I have been 100% faithfull. This problem is REALLY hard on a relationship - its something that i need closure on for sure. Definitely something that you dont just let side. These posts make me feel alittle better, but I still need an answer. Any comments to my situation would be nice. Thanks

I'm so glad I found this, because even though my story is a little different, it is also the same. And this has helped me. Here is my story.

Last year I got pregnant by my boyfriend. So of course, they take a pap smear during the baby doctor visits. That was my first ever pap and I'm not going to lie, the doctor was a douche. Anyways they called me back and told me to come back into the office where he told me I tested positive for Chylmidia(sorry if thats spelt wrong!) My boyfriend expected that I gave it to him, but since neither of us had been tested before, who knows who gave it to who. And honestly, as much as he cared, I didn't. I just wanted it to be cleared for the sake of my baby. So I took the med and they retested me a while later and I was all clear. Well. My boyfriend never got tested, or took the med to get cleared if he did have it. And after our son was born we had sex.... without a condom.... everytime. And it hit me later, sh*t, he never got treated. So I went to my doctor and they retested me and it came back negative. How could this happen? If I had it, he had to have it since we had unprotected sex both before and after I was pregnant. So the only thing I can come up with is that I never had it in the first place and they either mixed it up in the lab, or my baby doctor was an even bigger douche (which i could believe) and just wanted some extra money out of us. I know, that sounds weird, but if you went to this dr.... He is just way off and mean and lied right to mine and my boyfriends face alot of times.

im right now having the same problem with my partner and i know for fact none of us have been messing around im pregnant and i just had a test in december and it was negative and now in january i had another one and it was positiive i was so devastated but now that i read your story i have faith that sometimes doctors make mistakes my nurse said she has been trying to contact me about it and which i never did get any calls or messages but i didnt say nothing i was shocked by the news that i didnt even care to ask anymore i for sure though at that moment that my partner had cheated on me!

Any ideas for my situation?

I'm in the same situation. Me and my ex Boyfriend  broke up and i met my new boyfriend which we havent even been dating that long. My new boyfriend was complaining about problems down below and he went and got tested for Chlamydia,  they gave him the pills for it on the safe side and shortly after they called him and said his results were positive for Chlamydia, I told my ex about it then shortly after we both went and got tested they gave us the pills on the safe side but after the two weeks came by the nurse never contacted and informed me if i had Chlamydia or not but they contacted my ex and he came up negative for it, Meanwhile my new boyfriend and I both took the pills and he waited the two weeks, but i had three days left and we ended up having intercourse w a condom and the condom broke but he went back and got tested again and later on they called him and said he was positive for chlamydia and then weeks goes by and the nurse called him and said they gave him the wrong results that he was actually negative for it so i didnt think there was any need to go back to get retested again. Well time goes by and he's still having problems so he gets retested for the third time and it comes back Positive, he accuses me of giving it to him and swears i cheated on him when i know for a fact i didnt, it sucks because our relationship has failed because of it.. Is it possible that we were giving it back and forth to each other or did he really cheat on me??? I'm so lost!!

Same thinq happen to me...I test poitive and neqative for syphilis anf I only had sex with my partner and his came neqative...they make so much mistake now my partner thinks I cheated and he we broke up...but he's takinq me back to the clinic tmmorow..they have the damm nerves to say don't worry but how can I not stress over a biq mistake like tht..I will sue them they better not play with me

ok so.... i've been with the same guy for 3 years. we have a little boy together and everything. i've been tested 3 times since we've been together. i've never had anything. well i had the mirena put in a year ago... and i wanted to make sure it was still in place so i went to my gyno and had her check. well... they tested me for infections bc i told her i would sometimes get pain during sex. well...my test results came back positive for chlamydia. my fiance doesn't seem like the type of guy to ever do something like cheat. he wants to work on things but i don't know if i can because based on facts there is no other way i could've got it. i know i've been faithful.. so does this mean he cheated? i mean it is a bacteria... is there any other way?? maybe i'm just in denial. i mean he's sooo persuasive i want to believe him. i feel like he's telling the truth. is there any way i had it and it never showed up before or something? or maybe visa versa? please let me know. because i left him and i want to make sure i made the right decision. thanks.

This has kind of put my mind at ease!

I was stressing out. About three weeks ago I went in for a routine pap, and got a call a week later informing me I had tested positive for chlamydia. I instantly told my boyfriend (whom Ive been with for 4-5 months and currently in a long distance relationship with) I was terrified, upset, felt dirty. I told him I might have gotten it from my ex, because before me he had apparently been sleeping around with a few women. So my boyfriend got tested now two weeks ago and never heard anything back. He was told he would only be contacted if it was a positive, thus meaning he had a negative result. Im terrified that he thinks I cheated, which I havent, he says he knows I havent and he just wants answers as to if he has it or not. However I still am afraid it must be in the back of his mind.

Going through these stories I see a pattern, its often the women testing positive and the men consistently coming up negative. There must be something missing/wrong with the tests if even women who havent had sex in so many years are getting positive results. Ive taken the anti-bionics since and have been fine. Both of us are going to talk to some Doctors to find out whats going on, but Im sure Ill just get the same talk everyone else here has been, that since I was the one positive I must have cheated.

I think I have to take in account the nurse practitioner who did my pap wasnt in her normal office and kept complaining my whole appointment on how she couldnt find anything she needed. Im not sure if being in a different office caused her to mix my test up with someone else, or if I fall into the category of the rest of the women who have been tested positive while their partners are negative.
