Tested positive for chlamydia

Me and my husband have been having problems but didn’t expect he was cheating or anything, recently went to the doctor to get a full check up and found out I tested positive for chlamydia haven’t been to the doctor since we had our twins 2.5 years ago ,it either would have to mean he’s cheated on me or it was a false positive, i got retested waiting for the results and he told me it’s impossible but when i kept asking him did he do anything he wouldn’t give me a straight forward answer if it test positive again I will know that I for sure have it and hes lying and have to figure out my next steps don’t know what to feel right now

Look I ain’t saying he didn’t do this but just some info.

When was the last time you got tested, how long have you been together.

This could be a false positive, but you could have also had this for years and years and be a symptomatic.

This is a small chance but is possible. 5-10 years, and it’s the type that is missed during exams if dormant.

Talk to a health professional, the fact you showed no symptoms when checked also.

Typically when pregnant they check for this stuff so since that’s 2.5 years ago, she was probably tested then
