Chlamydia Test Results Inconclusive So Should I Get A Retest Or Start Medication?

My chlamydia/ gonorrhea test results came back inconclusive. My doctor said they usually put those who come back inconclusive on antibiotics just to be on the safe side which includes a shot. She said I can get retested instead and see what happens this time. Should I retest or is there a high chance I have either or? I don t want to take anything that I don t need. My boyfriend and I only have sex with each other and we ve been together for 9 months, so neither of us knows where I would have received it from. Neither of us has any symptoms.
