About Chlamydia
Chlamydia is caused by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis and is transmitted through unprotected vaginal, anal, or oral sexual contact. Many individuals with chlamydia are asymptomatic — in fact, up to 70% of women and 50% of men experience no symptoms at all.
When symptoms do occur, they may include abnormal genital discharge, pain during urination, or pelvic discomfort. If left untreated, chlamydia can lead to serious complications including pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), ectopic pregnancy, and reduced fertility in both men and women.
Who Should Consider Chlamydia Testing?
Under 25 and sexually active
Annual screening is recommended by public health guidelines for this age group.
New or multiple sexual partners
Risk increases with each new sexual contact without barrier protection.
Experiencing symptoms
Unusual discharge, pain during urination, or pelvic pain should be investigated.
Partner notification
If a current or recent partner has tested positive for chlamydia.
