Confusing Chlamydia

by JoshJosh, Oct 09, 2007 11:18AM
In the past year I have had unprotected sexual intercourse with 2 females.  1 only 1 time and the other 25+ times.  Recently I tested positive for Chlamydia, I thought it might have come from the female I was with once but both of the females I was with tested negative so I have no idea where it could have come from?.. any ideas?...
I took an antibiotic and its all gone but its driving me nuts... the only othere thing I could possibly think of that I have done different in this time is that I recently purchased 2 male materbation toys, just silicone sleeves along with lubrication (water-soluble)... is there anyway I could have gotten anything from them?... I don't see how but that is the only thing I have done different in this time...
I have been with other girls unprotected before but that has been over a year ago and if it was positive I would like I would have given it to the female I was with 25+ times...
If you have any thoughts or ideas I would apprecaite it.  Thanks very much.

The answer to the last part of your questions is obviously no...you CANNOT get chlamydia from a masturbation toy, unless it was used on someone who had chlamydia, then you used it on your penis.  There are a couple of possibilities:

1) Your result was a false positive, which is rare however, especially if they tested using DNA amplification.
2) It could be that the girl who gave it to you was treated, and therefore she is testing negative.
3) Chlamydia also goes away on its own, without treatment.  Thus the girl who gave it to you could have gotten rid of the bacteria, and not known about it.

clamydia does not go away on its own. i think that the other 2 girls need to be treated even though the test came back neg for them. u shouldnt have sex with them unless they have been treated. that happened to me b4. they said i was positive but my boyfriend was neg. what a huge fight that turned out to be. and i never cheated on him. i know we both had it because we were sleeping together. it didnt make sense. i made him get treated anyway. the doc told me that if he peed right b4 the test it couldve flushed some of the bacteria out making it hard to show up positve. well anyway good luck. be careful.
