hey its ok... i had chlymidia cause cause my partner cheated and i never knew....well i found out cause my work makes me take medical checks... i had it for atlease a year....its quite common for chlymidia... i don't know about gonorrhea... i had thrust heaps and its easy to treat, even in really bad circumstances.... just treat your problems... it will be ok... and if you want to get pregant you should still be able to...

Chlamydia can be undetected for long long time. And the longer the more it can affect your fertility. This because even thought chlamydia is very easily treated it does cause irreversible damage to the fallopian tubes. So the sooner the diagnosis the better. You can always get pregnant but if the tubes are too damaged it may require IVF.

Before you put away the Kleenex, you should know that unless BOTH of you abstain 100% from each other, are treated for both issues and obtain NEGATIVE screens for both diseases, you will not be able to irradicate it, and will continue to destroy your reproductive system to the point of infertility.

I would not, under any circumstances, allow that man back in your bed without a legitimate STD report that proves his cleanliness, and by all means, do not allow his uncovered penis anywhere near your mucous membranes for the remainder of your lives... if he reconnects with the toilet he laid before you that gave him those bugs, you will br reinfected without any warning at all.

Your best bet is to get treated, retested, and not engage in unprotected sex with another man unless they obtain STD testing and show you the results. You should also be certain that you're protecting yourself from pregnancy, either by responsibly taking the pill, obtaining the shot, etc. because men can not be expected to know when YOU ovulate if YOU aren't requiring a condom-covered penis. If you get pregnant - ESPECIALLY with what you're tracking, you risk that baby's EVERYTHING. Its time you stop being selfish, and start conducting yourself with a little self respect.

I agree with NoBullcrap.

Make him get tested. Tested for EVERYTHING, especially HIV. There is no second chance with some STD's-they can be life-long.

I would even go with him.

Always remember, just because they say they haven't been with anyone in the last 6 months, it doesn't mean it's true! That goes for both men AND women.

Updated on 0514/08, my bf went to the doctor & he tesed negative for both...so that means they either got negative test results or something, because I hadnt foold around with anyone before him for a LONG time! My doctor said that the symptoms I was having meant that I had just recently gotten it! I swear these doctors are pissing me off!!!! I think they got my test results mixed up or something, the lady I went to wasnt even real doctor, she was a nurse practioner that examined me & is my gynecologist!

Nurse practitioners are fully capable of performing examinations.

They take a sample and put it under a microscope, sometimes even blood work.

I'm curious, did they check your blood or just do an examination?
You can always go back and request an actual doctor.

well I had my blood taken in march for donating blood, & no one contacted me through that or said ya know "hey go get checked out, you tested positive for so & so"...all she did was take a pap smear test

It is not the American Cross's obligation to contact you.

I would say go back to the doctor and request a BLOOD screening for ALL std's.

That might help pinpoint when you could have contracted these.

well I have already been treated for it!I thought maybe if American Red Cross looked at my blood & saw that there was something wrong with it & knew they couldnt use it. The person donating the blood was surely unaware, so they would fill them in ya know! I dont know!!!!!

Maybe you weren't infected at that time? I'm not sure because it's hard to pinpoint when you could have contracted the diseases.

I thought they said you probably contracted these recently?
It could mean that you did so after donating.

I know they check the blood though. I think it is the law that they would have to contact you if you had some kind of communicable disease. I know for a fact that they contact DHEC. I'm pretty sure DHEC then contacts the donor in this type of situation.

You haven't fooled around with ANYONE?

I donated in March...I have only had intercourse with the guy im with now, I was having sex with him before donating blood after donating, thats what I mean it doesnt sense! I swear I havent messed with anyone, & he tested negative!!!!

Did you just not have intercourse with anyone else? These could be contracted in other ways.

no nothing at all, i have only been with him!

Then it HAS to be from him.
Either that or they were dormant for that period of time since you were with someone else...
I don't know what to say.

lol me either, he was tested by the hospital & it came back negative & I was tested by a nurse practioner that said I was positive, I dont know to say either! But we both got vaccinated, so everything is cool! I just hope I will never have that feeling of when I found it out AGAIN!

When was your BF tested and how long did it take before they got back to him? It would be a good idea to use condoms with him - just in case. Also get tested for HPV. Men are never tested for HPV, they are carriers though.

Um once I went to the doctor they instructed him to go to the hospital get tested then they gave him meds!!!! The same day I got done!
