23 weeks pregnant and just found out I’ve tested positive for chlamydia.
Have been suspecting my partner of cheating— and now I’m testing positive during a routine STI testing. He’s completely denied it and is now saying his ONLY thought or possible explanation for this is that perhaps it’s throat chlamydia and he’s never been tested or swabbed in the throat just urine samples which always came out negative.
PLEASE help me understand if this is true/possible or what the process is like. I am so uneasy and doing everything possible to remain calm. Doctor’s office has re ordered testing just to ease my mind and to see if it also comes out positive again but this time it will be a urine sample vs a swab test (which was done 2/3 days ago). My last test was done via urine sample 3.5 months ago and was negative.
Is it possible that he had it and it somehow sat dormant as well until as of recently? I am reading so many different things online and cannot come to a conclusion on if this clearly means he’s cheated. I am more concerned about the health of our baby more than anything and am grateful that it’s something curable. Any advice or insight would be helpful. Thank you! 🙏🏼
UPDATE: I’m realizing whether it’s throat chlamydia or not as he claimed— I clearly got a vaginal swab test which tested positive so that claim does not make any sense & I would’ve tested positive the first time as well.
