Chlamydia is one of the most frequent STDs. The disease is spread through a bacterium bearing the same name, Chlamydia and it can emerge more often in the case of teenagers who are active from the sexual point of view and in the case of young adults. The disease can be severe, but it can be easily cured if it is detected in due time. It is as well, the greatest cause of blindness in the world, which can be prevented. Blindness can occur as a conjunctivitis complication associated with Chlamydia.
Men infected with Chlamydia can also have infection in the urine canal (urethra). A great number of women who are sick with Chlamydia and are not treated by a doctor will eventually also have pelvic inflammatory syndrome. A number of other inflictions could follow, such as uterus infections, uterine proboscis and/or ovaries infections, which could lead to an irreversible damage such as infertility.
Pelvic inflammatory disease causes lacerations in the reproductive organs that lead to serious complications including constant pains in the pelvic area, reproductive problems, ectopic pregnancy (pregnancy outside the uterus) and a host of other problems connected to reproduction.
Just like in gonorrhoea, the bacterium Chlamydia can live in the uterine cervix, urethra and inside the throat and rectum as well. For both men and women, Chlamydia does not show early indications of the infection. Consequently, the infected persons can spread the disease unknowingly through sexual contact as well as through anal and oral sex.
If somebody touches body fluids, which contain the bacterium, and then they touch their eyes, it is possible to spread the Chlamydia infection to the eye too. It can as well pass from the mother to the baby while giving birth. Chlamydia can cause pneumonia and conjunctivitis, which can become very severe for the baby if they are not treated. The disease can be easily cured as long as you are aware of it. If it is not treated, though, Chlamydia can lead to more severe health problems.
Chlamydia can be hardly detected because infections, during first stages, sometimes do not trigger or they trigger few signs and symptoms that can make you go to the doctor. When signs and symptoms do emerge, they are most of the times slight or passenger, that makes them easy to ignore.
Below are some symptoms of infection: - lower abdominal pain - low back pain - nausea - pain during intercourse - bleeding between menstrual periods. - vaginal discharge for women - penis discharge in case of men - swelling of the testicles and extreme senility to touch - burning sensation when urinating and urinating more frequently Sometimes, one will have slight fever, muscular pain and headache
Infected men might produce discharge from their penis and experience a burning sensation while urinating. They might also have burning sensation and itching around the penis opening. On rare occasions there might also be pain swelling in the testicles.
As far as Chlamydia diagnostic is concerned, there are special tests based on urine analysis or it can be detected in the material taken from the vagina or the penis or even the anus. As it is a disease, which can affect especially young people, it can be prevented by sexual education programs in schools or social assistance centers.
