I had unprotected sex with a girl in 2007, got myself tested in early 2009 of which all tests came back negative, i also sent away a home clahmydia testing kit, also came back negative. I am concerned still that i have a discharge under the foreskin that thrives when wet and is more noticeable in the morning, i have pain in the tescticles at times. What could it be? Is there a chance that the clinic and the home testing kit missed a STI?
I have been with partner for 4 yrs and have never slept with antone else.
I have just been told i have chlamdia I have been tested in the past and its been negative.
Does this mean he could of slept with someone else?
A year ago i had unprotected sex. However i wouldnt really call it sex, we had intercorse for about 5mins and i thought what am i doing no proctection and that was it. However i now had a stable parnter ive been with quite awhile. i am on the pill, and the last about 6 months we havent been using protection (he hasn't had sex with anyone other than me). Ive been off my recent period for 7 days now and the last 3days its been really itchy below.. i want to go to my doctor but im too embarrassed. Is anything wrong with me?
i had and i cleared the bacteria with antibiotic.i did a personal urine test at home to test for bacteria and uti,with azo urine test stripe 2 times.But it shows that i have no bacteria but only white blood cell in my urine,which shows i have uti.can the bacteria be cleared and one still have uti or the bacteria already cause the damage before it was cleared

Hi, I've been with the same partner for seven and a half years, I recently had pelvic pain and was tested positive for chlamydia, we have both been monogamous so are wondering how this has happened, the nurse at our doctors surgery said I have to go to a clinic to be treated, could I not just get the antibiotics from my doctor, also she said my partner may have to be tested but surely this must be done or its pointless me being treated, how do you test a man?
i had a chlamydia test and was positive and have been treated, taken another test and come back negative, but i just wanted to know if the chlamydia test done through the post is also a gonoreha test?
