my husband

i had a pap smear done and it came back saying i had chylmidia. the thing is i can honestly say i never cheated on my husband. and we both got treated but is it true that males are carriers of the std? and if so could it be possible that only a couple of months before this pap we were both negative for check ups and then we were positive? or is it cuz he cheated?

I'm not sure which forum to post this question... On my tongue, I have red dots and also white pustules that are painful to the touch.  My mouth/tongue tasted chalky last week and I thought it was due to too much caffeine intake.  Is this a form of herpes?  I've been in a monogamous relationship for 6 years...

yes it is true that males are carriers of chlamydia.  Sadly, sometimes chlamydia tests for men show up negative so he can still pass it on to you without knowing. I dont know how long you 2 have been together but he may have carried it on from his previoius partner and never got treated/antibiotics for it and then passed it on to you. It's hard to know but he may not not have cheated on you or he may have indeed cheated.
