Could it really be chlamydia or something else?

I was treated for chlamydia about a month and a half ago and my retest came out negative (same with my boyfriend). I also found out that I have dysplacia from hpv.

I have been freaked out since the first std diagnosis and get checked after each time my boyfriend and I have intercourse (to my knowledge he's not being unfaithful). I just visited a planned parenthood less than 6 days after we had last been together and they told me they saw my cervix was irritated and I had the presence of yeast and a higher white blood cell count. They said they are presuming I have chlamydia and gave me an antibiotic to treat it.

I thought I might have bv again because I had a slight yellow discharge start a few hours after we had intercourse. I know that's too soon for an std. They said I did not have bv.

However, would the hpv or yeast have caused the higher white blood cell counts? I'm not sure how they could just jump to a chlamydia diagnosis. Anyone else experience this before? They said my std test won't come back for another week so I'm just sitting here worried.

Both the hpv and yeast can cause a higher white blood cell count? They did a swab to test for the stds which is the results that they said I would have in a week from the lab.
