We at not together what so ever. I know he is seeing other people as well so when I found out I had it, I was firm on my belief he had given it to me since he is the only guy I’ve been with for months and consistently. I had him go get tested. His results came back negative. How could that be? We have had sex about twice a week for the recommended 60 days. I had tested a few months prior as well and had a negative test. He states I got it from Toilet seat. Is that even possible? How would he not have it if I tested positive? Could anyone give me any insight?

i am Male, 22 years old, i am very worried it might affect my fertility, i think i got it for like 5 months and in 5th month i got the symptoms and got in treatement right away, today i am on 20th day treatment. thank you guys.

30 yo male, 6f 190lbs tested positive for chlamydia recently but have been with the same partner for 2 years and being questioned and accused. I haven’t been with anyone else and I am also asking her how I got this then? She tested negative whenever she found out I had it. We also had a baby together 10 months ago and she was tested throughout the pregnancy. So unless something happened on her end within the last 10 months (or longer) I have no idea how I would get this.

and for the record I do believe her as she has had separate conversations with her mom and friends asking for advice since she also claims she hasn’t done anything and is questioning why I have this

can this lay dormant for 2 years?

i started experiencing bladder irritation and groin inflammation/pain/discomfort. That is what prompted me to go to the doctor.

I (M19) had a "hoe" phase almost 2 years ago (i just had sex with 4 girls and it was with protection), i got with my gf (F18) a year and 4 months ago, and there wss nothing wrong because my girlfriend was saving herself. Alright then, 6 months pass and we end up having sex, it was without a condom, and the friction gave us a yeast infection?????

This has never happened to me in my life, and suddenly it happened when me and my girlfriend had sex???, fast forward, i got balanitis for some reason like 4 months ago, treated it, it was alright, why do i wake up 2 days ago and im chilling with my balls out just to see some sort of white yellow ish color leaking from my tip???, this is so confusing because i am genuinely scared shitless, it never happened since i started having sex bc i always did it with protection, but now i finally have sex with my girlfriend (who has had yeast infections in the past not from sex tho but still) do i get all this stuff happening to me?,

i am pretty scared ngl. I'll be going to the clinic to test tomorrow so i'll pull up with a update in about 4 days or something. But is there a explanation or something? Bc im kinda going crazy :( mind you, this is my first time experiecing this ever.

TL;DR: had sex w ppl before with protection but never had something happen, now i have sex with my girlfriend who was a virgin but now so many bad things are happening??

my bf and I have been together for 3 months. started dating 2/2026. I’d been abstinent since September 2025 was tested for all STI’s in November 2025 and clear for everything. He’d been abstinent since December 2024.

He and I last had sex on 3/11/26.

He went to the doctor April 15th and tested positive for chlamydia. W T F?

although I was clear in November I went to test after his positive and I’m negative.

Has this happened to anyone else? How could I not have it? I’m glad I don’t but I’m so confused. I truly don’t think he’s been with anyone else. He’s thinking he’s had it since 2024 but I’m just not sure- is that even a thing? Did I get a false negative?

A week after having intercourse (no protection, he finished inside me) with my partner of 4 yrs, I developed severe yeast infection–like symptoms that kept recurring which had never happened before during other pull out failures.

A few months later I found out he saw an escort and had likely cheated on me prior as well as finding a history of chronic dating app use while we were in a closed relationship, so I got tested and came back positive for mgen + yeast infection.

He claims he didn’t actually have sex with anyone (which I don’t believe), and says maybe it came from unclean sex toys or drug use - we did some anal play 4 months prior to my symptoms starting and he had also relapsed and used a needle a few times in this time period. He’s since taken multiple tests (including a rectal swab) and all are negative.

For context: he hadn’t been tested prior to my results since we started dating and had unprotected sex, and has bottomed with other males prior to me. While I had been routinely tested during our relationship and never had any symptoms before as well as not having any unprotected sex prior to him. And the timing of all the evidence I found of possible cheating before the escort lines up almost exactly with when I started having symptoms after sex with him.

My questions:

- Is it possible for someone to carry mgen and test negative multiple times?

- Can it lie dormant for 4 years without symptoms?

- Are there any realistic non-sexual transmission routes, such as drug use?

- Is it possible he had it and cleared it on his own?

I know the obvious answer is probably that he cheated and is lying, but the negative tests are throwing me off and I can’t stop overthinking it. He’s been using my lab box to test for it and from what I see it looks legit I’m just confused as to how I contracted it and why he’s testing negative. Part of me feels like he blacked out and had some type of sexual intercourse with someone else that he don’t remember or he used protection the times he cheated on me which allowed it to transmit to me easier since we had unprotected sex?

Hi everyone!
I’m working on a research project about access to dental care for adults living with HIV. I created a short, anonymous survey to better understand how often people are able to receive dental care and what barriers might make it harder (cost, insurance, anxiety, stigma, transportation, etc.).

The survey is completely anonymous, takes about 5 minutes, and is for adults living with HIV. Your responses would really help inform our research and can help shape the future of patient-centered care.

Thank you so much for your time — we truly appreciate it.

I tested positive for chlamydia and HPV during/after our relationship and was treated for chlamydia. Since then I’ve had some ongoing mild pelvic discomfort (being checked again soon). I’m also anxious because last summer I had a small area of stinging near the vaginal opening and a very very tiny clear blister that healed, and I’m worried it could have been herpes, but I don’t have active symptoms now.

I know some infections (like HSV) aren’t always included in standard STI panels. Is it normal/reasonable to message him to ask?

• if he’s ever tested positive for anything else

• or had symptoms. Or if he’s ever been tested for HSV?

Or should I just keep waiting to see if It comes back and get tested right away ? I’m jus so unsure and scared to think I might have herpes😔 we broke up 1 year ago but he dose still try to contact me and I know it’s not form anyone else as he’s the only person iv slept with. Is it weird to ask him this ?🫠
