This may seem naive but is there any other
way in which chlamidya can be contracted
other than sexually or orally? Both
myself and partner contracted it, we have
been together 6 yrs and were both negative
for stds when we first got together and I
have had no other sexual partners. We saw
separate doctors and he seems to think
that there is a tiny chance that it can be
caught from toilet seats. Help I dont no
what to think!

Um, sounds like your partner was with
someone else. You cannot contract
chlamydia from a toilet seat! Unless
there is vaginal fluids, or seminal fluids
on the seat and you rub them all through
your privates, which I seriously doubt
either of you did.
Chlamydia is gotten through sexual
intercourse plain and simple. So, I
would definately be asking several
questions!

I asked loads of questions in the
beginning fearing the worst but he
strongly denied and still does that he has
done anything with anyone else, which is
why I needed another opinion, for my own
sanity! Thanks.

My sister has been married for 5 years and
recently went to the gyno and found out
she had chlamydia. She has been faithful
to her husband, and he had been faithful
to her, so she is in your same boat. Her
doc said it was possible that she or her
husband had had chlamydia before and it is
just now showing up on the tests -
sometimes they are wrong, especially if
when tested, you had just contracted the
std. Chlamydia is very common and easily
cureable, so if you believe your partner,
then I would not worry. You may also want
to think about condoms though.

Chlamydia is a very common std.
Chlamydia isn't the kind of std that lies
dormant and undetected. It is sexually
transmitted and isn't contracted any other
way, and if you were tested (and you had
it at the time you were tested) it would
have shown up then. So, someone was not
faithful.

My doctor was understandably reluctant to
confirm my suspicions which is why looking
back now, I can understand how others may
have used this to their advantage.
Doctors should not feel responsible for
peoples actions but tell it like it is. I
know that I will never know the truth .

I have read some posts in this forum where
people's doctors wont tell them that they
have std's because then that would mean
their spouse was cheating? That is so
messed up! Doctor's regardless of their
beliefs, have a moral obligation to
explain these things to you! Including
that std's are not contracted in any other
way then sexual contact! The only thing
you can get from a toilet seat is lice and
crabs, etc. Not stds that are spread
through sexual contact or through sexual
fluids. Those docs need fired!
