Best Answer

If a woman's cervix bleeds with minimal contact, it may be a sign of chlamydia. Bleeding or spotting after a pap smear isn't necessarily a sign of chlamydia. Since you're concerned, contact your health care provider to make sure you were tested for chlamydia at the time of the pap smear.

A pap smear does not detect chlamydia. A pap smear can not detect chlamydia, and a negative Pap smear does not indicate that you don't have chlamydia. So, yes, it's possible to have a Pap test for four years and not know you have chlamydia if your health care provider didn't do a specific test for chlamydia. Did your health care provider actually test for chlamydia in the prior four years? First check with your health care provider, and then you can try to figure out how you might have contracted it, if in fact you had a negative test as soon as a year ago.
