Chlamydia - tested positive, partner tested negative.

My boyfriend and I were both tested for STD's, mine came back positive for chlamydia and his came back negative. I haven't cheated on him and was tested after my last partner. How can this happen?

The test is not perfect. A false positive is possible, but unlikely. You both need to be treated regardless of his result. Chlamydia is sexually transmitted only and could have been brought in from a previous relationship or an affair during this relationship. Regardless, this episode is a good opportunity for some communication, and hopefully the relationship will be stronger in the end!

Best of luck!
Well - tests are NOT always 100% - so even if just ONE of you has been tested positive you SHOULD BOTH be treated - and YES as the answer below - false positive can occur - but DON'T waste your time searching that out - one of you got a positive - TREAT - that is what you need to do.
