Hey everyone..I have a friend whos been having issues with her husband. There was a while back that she suspected he was cheating on her. Well her husband went away for a couple weeks and when he got back she noticed a bloody spot on his boxers. She made him go get STD tested only to find out he has Clamidia. She got tested and she does NOT have it. He claims he did not cheat on her and that he got it from a toilet seat. Everything I've ever been taught and everything I've read online states you can NOT get it from a toilet seat....only from Oral, Anal and Vaginal sex. I guess my question is, does anyone know if it IS possible he is telling the truth and he could have gotten it from a toilet seat or is he really lying like I suspect? She says she has two friends who claim they got Clamidia without having sex but I don't know if they might be covering for him or if its her way of being in denial...and what do I say to her??
Any ideas, advice or imput is appreciated..
Thanks!!
Hey A.,
I had chlamydia back in 02. I received it from a partner I had. I have never heard (from docs) that it is possible to get it from a toilet seat. Personally, I would still wonder about that. How'd the bloodspot get on his boxers? Doesn't sound right to me.
Good luck, & God bless!
Hi A.,
The wife needs to be taking the same medication along with her husband because it is a sexually transmitted disease.
This STD is a symptom of a problem in your friend's marriage. She seems to have trust issues that are stemming from her child hood. Suggest that she get into a mom's support group and if she has children to get involved in parenting classes. She also can get involved in a civic group.
She needs to get in touch with herself.

Hope this helps. Good luck. D.
From all of my sex ed classes and internet research I don't believe that its possible to get any STD froma toilet set. But hey I hope your friend finds out the truth cause it sounds like the 2 friends are just covering his butt and that he needs to let the truth be known.
Hey A.,
I am a registered nurse and believe me you CANNOT get chlamydia from a toilet seat. What I can say is that in males they can have chlamydia for a long, long time and not know. This is because they do not present with the symptoms that women do when they have it (i.e. vaginal discharge, pelvic pain, etc...). Your friend really needs to listen to her heart. If she has to even question her husband's fidelity chances are that something is wrong. I hope for the best for your friend
I have a friend who got it from another friend wearing her panties and she didn't realize the girl had worn them. So I do think he got it from someone cause I think it has to touch. That "part" of him surely didn't touch a toilet seat.
I'm sorry I'm a little late with a response, but this is ridiculous! I have found that when you feel in your gut that something isn't right, it probably isn't. I would check this out further. It sounds like he has already incriminated himself with that ridiculous story about a toilet seat. Someone who hasn't done anything wouldn't have the need to make up a story. When she is ready to take this further, she will. Until then I would support her in what ever decision she will make.
Good Luck!
