I was just told by clinic that I visted to have papsmear last week,
and that my papsmear results came back positive with Chlamyda.
They also told me it is a STD. which I never had any sexuallly related
disease before, which makes me very skepticle.
If you could give me more information such as what it could cause? also, Is it higher percentage to get it, than the people who never got it before?
I'm also wondering why I don't have any symptom like dischage or itchness...
The reason I went to papsmear because my partner who I had sexual contact
with a month ago, that he went to clinic and they told him they found the Sprilla after exam. which it's a bacteria that can get from sexual contact, and he advised to me to visit clinic to get a check up. what's the difference between Sprilla and Chlamyda??
I'd appreciate you so much if you could give me more information.
Thanks alot~~!
My guess is that the visual appearance of your discharge (and the rest of your physical exam) were not typical for chlamydia or other STDs, but that the chlamydia test came back positive. If so, you definitely have chlamydia; the lab test is always more accurate than the physical exam.
You'll have to ask your doctor what she meant by 'anal bacteria' causing your vaginal discharge. Maybe you have bacterial vaginosis, an overgrowth of certain kinds of normal vaginal germs. BV isn't caused by anal bacteria, but your doctor might think it is. It could be that the chlamydia triggered BV, or that chlamydia itself is the only cause of the discharge. Either way, the problem probably will go away when your chlamydia is treated.
By far the main health risk here is the chlamydia. BV (if that indeed is part of the problem) usually isn't dangerous, but chlamydia can be. The antibiotic probably is doxycycline. Be sure to take all of it, as prescribed; it will reliably cure the chlamydia. Anybody you have had sex with in the last couple of months also needs to be treated for chlamydia (without waiting for the test result, or even if his or her chlamydia test is negative). Your partner(s) also need to take steps to be sure any other partners are treated.
