I tested positive for chlamydia this month, so I informed about six men who may have been exposed, but they all told me they tested negative.

Is the chlamydia infection vaginal? It can also affect the throat, but I’ll assume you mean a vaginal infection. Chlamydia is only transmitted through unprotected sex. If those men really did use protection the entire time, then they’re all in the clear. So where did you get it? From a man you had unprotected sex with in the past—even if it was months or years ago. The bacteria won’t disappear without treatment. As for why your previous tests were negative: did you use one of those mail-in tests where you order a kit online, collect vaginal discharge yourself with a swab, and send it in? Those tests are prone to false negatives. So if the result is positive, you can consider the infection confirmed, but a negative result doesn’t necessarily mean you’re in the clear. For a reliable test, a gynecologist needs to use an instrument to open the vagina and collect a sample from deeper inside. I learned this directly from a doctor I’m close with. They also said that for women doing papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan), the source of a chlamydia infection is usually not their papa (a male supporter), but a private boyfriend, casual partner, or someone similar. When you think about it, that makes sense: women are overwhelmingly more likely to have unprotected sex with private partners. By the way, a mail-in test is fine for men. Since the infection tends to reside in the urethra, it can be detected through urine, so there’s no real difference between testing at a hospital and using a mail-in kit. As for what you should do: ① get proper treatment, ② apologize to the six papas for the worry and inconvenience, then continue seeing them with protection, and ③ make sure to use protection in your private relationships too. Be careful, because some men pretend to use a condom and then take it off partway through. > Are there really men who see six women at the same time? > It sounds like that would cost around ¥500,000 a month. Is this just bait? lol

Google AI says: Chlamydia is often asymptomatic (around 80% of women). It can remain dormant after being contracted from a partner months or even years ago, or be transmitted unknowingly through mucous-membrane contact without penetration, such as oral sex (throat-to-genital contact). It is almost never spread through everyday activities like using toilets, bathing, or visiting hot springs. The chance of transmission from a single sexual encounter with an infected person is about 30–50%. Conclusion: Trying to identify “who’s to blame,” lol, and pinpointing the exact transmission route is nearly impossible. If you’re going to do papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) with around six papas, I think you should accept that chlamydia or gonorrhea are possibilities and make sure you have information on a clinic where you can get tested and treated promptly. (If you notice anything unusual, get tested right away.) At your own discretion, look up the preventive method called doxy-PEP. There’s also an option to prevent infection with antibiotics through private medical care. Fuu also gets it prescribed by a doctor they know. It’s a matter of luck. I understand how you feel, since Fuu has also had as many as seven monthly-arrangement partners at one point. Not necessarily every month—if you combine them with papas you see once every two months, I imagine there are quite a few women who maintain six papas. With six partners, I suppose STIs are more or less inevitable.

Are you trying to find someone to blame? If you’re a married man, hearing a woman say something like that would be frightening enough to make you get tested and treated immediately. This isn’t about cutting her off—you deserve to be cut off. For a woman, seeing six people at the same time may be normal, but are there really men who are active with six women simultaneously? Even if you met each of them once a month, at ¥50,000 per meeting, plus hotel, meals, and everything else, you’d be spending around ¥500,000 a month. There probably aren’t many men having intimate relations with six women. You should consider the possibility that you’re the source of the infection.

> Are you trolling? lol I think it’s a serious answer!! Probably… If you’re seeing six or more people, that’s hardly dating anymore, surely… lol It’s nothing more than a relationship where you meet up… Hmmmm, but I guess that’s what papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) is…??

I’m not a doctor, so what I’m about to write may be inaccurate. I want to make that clear first. A few years ago, a woman from a papa-katsu club reported that she had contracted chlamydia, so I went to the hospital. The test came back negative. However, I was told, “Especially in men, it’s common for a simple test to come back negative. A lab test takes time, and if you are infected, the condition could worsen, so just take the medication.” I was prescribed medication effective against chlamydia and took it for a week. Even if your test is negative, if the other person is positive, everyone involved needs to take the medication. Based on what I know, you shouldn’t continue seeing anyone who refuses to take it. Since that experience, I’ve been getting tested for sexually transmitted infections once a month.

If you didn’t have unprotected sex with them, then I don’t think it was one of those six. If you have a boyfriend or someone else you had unprotected sex with in the past, it seems more likely you caught it from one of them. > The other four didn’t have photos. Should I cut them off? From the men’s perspective, they may appreciate you telling them, but also think, “Just don’t pass it on to me.” So unless there’s a clear connection, I think it would be a shame to cut them off simply because they didn’t have photos. You may be thinking this way because you believe you caught it from one of those six, but even if one of them was responsible, the other five might still be thinking, “Come on, seriously?” With that in mind, although ping-pong infections are scary, if you used condoms, I’d suspect someone else and keep all six as options.
