I first got chlamydia by my first boyfriend, but I didn't find out about it until I was with my current(second) boyfreind. We both got tested and his test came back negative but mine came back positive. I got treated for it immideately and got a second test done some time later which came back negative, but now Im pregnant by my current boyfriend of two years and was told that I have it again. I haven't slept with anyone else but my current boyfriend and he tested negative for it again, so how did this happen?

yes yes yes! not necessarily come back, but if he never got treated for it, he could of reinfected you. If you had it at the beginning of your relationship while you were with him you both should of gotten treated regardless if he was negative or not. He could of had a false negative result. That is why it is best for both to be treated at the same time even if only one comes back positive. That is our protocall.
Make sure this time you BOTH get treated for it and get retested to make sure your re-tests are negative. PLEASE! You don't want to have a vaginal delivery with an infection. Actually they will not allow you to have a vaginal delivery if you are still infected. So make sure to get retested both YOU and YOUR BOYFRIEND!!! Make sure to go with him to make sure he does get tested.
If it comes back again... he has some explaining to do, honestly!

Even though the present bf has been testing negative he needs to be treated as well. I know you probably do not want to know this however I am going to tell you what can happen to the baby because of this:conjunctivitis or "pink eye, if you still have the disease when you give birth your baby may have Chlamydia as well. Not to mention that there risk to your pregnancy such as miscarriage, preterm birth, preterm rupture of the membranes. The sooner the both of you(you and your partner) get treated the better for all 3 of you. I hope that all goes well for you and you get this under control.

How do you know his came back negative? Did HE tell you? Or did the Dr. tell you and him in the office together? The Dr. shouldn't give you his results over the phone, because of patient confidentiality. When you tested positive the first time, did you finish ALL of the meds? I think he should have been prescribed meds too when you tested positive the first time, he was exposed to an STD.

Causes, incidence, and risk factors Chlamydia infection is caused by the organism Chlamydia trachomatis. It is the most common sexually transmitted disease in the United States. Sexually active individuals and individuals with multiple partners are at highest risk. Chlamydia may be acquired jointly with gonorrhea and/or syphilis, so individuals with one sexually transmitted disease must be screened for other sexually transmitted diseases as well. Untreated chlamydia can lead to pelvic infection and infertility. In men, chlamydia may produce symptoms similar to those of gonorrhea (discharge from penis or rectum, burning on urination or defecation), and can also cause epididymitis and orchitis. However, up to 25% of infected men may have no symptoms. Chlamydia (female: only approximately 30% of women will have symptoms due to chlamydia -- hence screening sexually active women for chlamydia is necessary to diagnose and treat asymptomatic women in order to decrease the risk of developing complications. Women who do have symptoms may note vaginal discharge, burning on urination, or abdominal pain. Untreated infection may lead to pelvic inflammatory disease (PID, which can cause scarring of the fallopian tubes and result in infertility. Tubal scarring also increases the likelihood of an ectopic pregnancy (tubal pregnancy). If a women is infected with chlamydia while pregnant, the infection can cause premature labor and delivery. In addition, the infant may develop chlamydial conjunctivitis (eye infection) and chlamydial pneumonia

If you never finished the course of meds to the full,it returns.I'm sure you must have infected your 2nd boyfriend and he could have passed it back to you.Don't you believe that AIDS is out there?Please in future,use a condom unless you're married and know your partner will not cheat...
