How do chlamydia and yeast infection get misdiagnosed?

It's hard to imagine who chlamydia and yeast infection could be confused. Yeast and chlamydia are very different organisms.

Sometimes patients mistake this chain of events to mean that the yeast infection diagnosis was incorrect.

No you have to have sex with someone who has Chlamydia to get it. You can get a yeast infection without having sex; it's not really an "infection" that you catch, but an imbalance in the normal flora of the vagina. Because the symptoms of chlamydia are usually absent or hardly noticable, it's not hard to imagine a woman treating herself repeatedly with over-the-counter yeast infection treatments, not realizing that something else is wrong. Follow the instructions on yeast medication and get examined if you don't have long-lasting relief from symptoms.
