How Long Does it Take to Get Chlamydia Test Results Back?

How long does it take to get Chlamydia test results back once you’ve gotten tested? That depends on your method of testing. The traditional visit to the clinic or other medical facility can be quite different from the fast and convenient at-home screening.

How Long Does it Take to Get Chlamydia Test Results Back?

You made an appointment, took time off from work, traveled to the clinic and sat in a crowded waiting room. At least you’ll know for sure whether you are free of STDs, right? Wrong! As a matter of fact, you may wait for your results for days but never actually receive a phone call letting you know your status. Often, medical facilities have a policy to call patients only when results are positive. Simply put, if your results are negative, you may not be contacted. In these cases, you’ll need to call the facility yourself to find out your status for sure.

Even though you may not get your own results, your insurance company, its affiliates and the Medical Information Database will. So not only are you testing without the promise of results, your privacy is at risk as well.
