By the way, I am not a doctor. You will have to pay for doctor's advice on here. I would just wait and see what your doctors says and maybe get a second opinion. Good luck.
I don't know the scientific response to why it happens. I just know it happens. To go to the STD forum, just go to forums on here and find the std.
The Doc ordered an re-test EIA-IGM- Why does it happen to pregnant woman- I am so worrieplease advise- and how to take it to STD forum

You should take this to the std forum. However, you could have had a false positive test. It happens with women that are pregnant. What did your doc say?

Millions of people are diagnosed with STDs in the U.S. each year.
STDs can't be transmitted by casual contact, like hugging or touching.
Syphilis is an STD that is transmitted by oral, genital and anal sex.
Discharge often isn't normal, and could mean an infection or an STD.
STDs aren't transmitted through clothing. Fabric is a germ barrier.
Normal vaginal discharge varies in color, smell, texture and amount.
