    The most common explanation by a distance is that a partner wasn’t treated at the same time, so you cleared it and then got it back from them. Treatment failure exists but it’s much rarer.

    Worth asking directly whether your partner completed treatment rather than just started it, and whether you both waited the period the clinic told you to wait before having sex again. That gap catches a lot of people out.
