When a male takes a urethra an swab test at the same time for chlamydia can both tests be false negative If so what is the percentage?

An estimate, from both tests showing negative, is less than a 2% chance you actually have the infection. The male urethral swab has a false negative rate of 15-20%. The rate of a false negative for the urine test has a false negative rate of 3-5.5%. So the chances of both being false negative, if they were done on separate days, is somewhere between 0.6% and 1.1%. If you had them done one right after the other on the same day, the risk of a false negative result goes up, as they couldn't have been done according to instructions.
