STD Test?

Unread post by Quickquestion7 »

Hi,

I was just wondering how long you should wait to get tested for chlamydia after you think you've been exposed. I don't want to test too early and get a false negative.

Thank you!!

Hi Quickquestion,

You can get tested within a day or two of the incident you're concerned about. However, if it's been less than two weeks, some clinicians might recommend you do a second test just to confirm the results.
And you to whom adversity has dealt the final blow/with smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go/turn to and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain/and like the Mary Ellen Carter rise again.
