An infectious disease that is sexually-transmitted. While it can cause abnormal vaginal or penile discharge and pain in the pubic region, the majority of infections have no symptoms. Chlamydia infection is also a cause of infertility and ectopic pregnancies, and can also be transmitted to the throat and rectum.
Abnormal vaginal discharge e.g. in color, smell, or quantity
Increase in vaginal discharge
Lower abdominal pain
Been sexually active with multiple partners during the past 1 month
Pain at the start of passing urine
itch or discomfort in the urethra - the opening where urine exits from
Bleeding in between menstrual cycles / periods or after menopause
Needing to pass urine again, despite just passing less than 2 hours ago
Your doctor may ask these questions to diagnose chlamydia infection
Do you have any concerns regarding change in your vaginal discharge (color, volume or odor)?
Have you experienced increased vaginal discharge recently?
Do you have pain in the lower part of your abdomen (stomach)?
Have you had sexual intercourse with anyone other than a regular partner in the last month?
Do you have pain when you start passing urine?
Treatment is with antibiotics. Although chlamydia is curable, it is important to avoid sex while under treatment, and to stay protected to prevent future episodes.
