1.CHLAMYDIA
A common, sexually transmitted infection that may not cause symptoms.
Chlamydia affects people of all ages but is most common in young women.

SYMPTOMS
Many who have chlamydia don't develop symptoms, but they can still infect others through sexual contact. Symptoms may include genital pain and discharge from the vagina or penis.

Some of the most common symptoms of chlamydia in men include:

burning sensation during urination
yellow or green discharge from the penis
pain in the lower abdomen
pain in the testicles

Chlamydia is a common sexually transmitted infection (STI) caused by bacteria. People who have chlamydia often don’t have outward symptoms in the early stages.

In fact, about 90 percent of women and 70 percent of men with the STI have no symptoms. But chlamydia can still cause health problems later.

Untreated chlamydia can cause serious complications, so it’s important to get regular screenings and talk with your doctor or healthcare provider if you have any concerns.



Chlamydia can cause a vaginal discharge. It may resemble pus or mucus.

Sex without a condom and unprotected MouthAction are the main ways a chlamydia infection can be transmitted. But penetration doesn’t have to occur to contract it.

Touching genitals together may transmit the bacteria. It can also be contracted during anal sex.

Newborn babies can acquire chlamydia from their mother during birth. Most prenatal testing includes a chlamydia test, but it doesn’t hurt to double-check with an OB-GYN during the first prenatal checkup.

A chlamydia infection in the eye can occur through oral or genital contact with the eyes, but this isn’t common.

Chlamydia can also be contracted even in someone who’s had the infection once before and successfully treated it. Find out more about how chlamydia is shared between individuals.


Chlamydia symptoms in men
Many men don’t notice the symptoms of chlamydia. Most men have no symptoms at all.

If symptoms do appear, it’s usually 1 to 3 weeks after transmission.

Some of the most common symptoms of chlamydia in men include:

burning sensation during urination
yellow or green discharge from the penis
pain in the lower abdomen
pain in the testicles
It’s also possible to get a chlamydia infection in the anus. In this case, the main symptoms are often discharge, pain, and bleeding from this area.

Having MouthAction with someone who has the infection raises the risk for getting chlamydia in the throat. Symptoms can include a sore throat, cough, or fever. It’s also possible to carry bacteria in the throat and not know it.


Chlamydia symptoms in women
Chlamydia is often known as the “silent infection.” That’s because people with chlamydia may not experience symptoms at all.

If a woman contracts the STI, it may take several weeks before any symptoms appear.

Some of the most common symptoms of chlamydia in women include:

painful sexual intercourse (dyspareunia)
vaginal discharge
burning sensation during urination
pain in the lower abdomen

inflammation of the cervix (cervicitis)
bleeding between periods

In some women, the infection can spread to the fallopian tubes, which may cause a condition called pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). PID is a medical emergency.

The symptoms of PID are:

fever
severe pelvic pain
nausea
abnormal vaginal bleeding between periods
Chlamydia can also infect the rectum. Women may not experience symptoms if they have a chlamydia infection in the rectum. If symptoms of a rectal infection do occur, however, they may include rectal pain, discharge, or bleeding.

Additionally, women can develop a throat infection if they perform MouthAction on someone with the infection. Though it’s possible to contract it without knowing it, symptoms of a chlamydia infection in your throat include cough, fever, and sore throat.

The symptoms of STIs in men and women can be different, so it’s important to talk to a healthcare professional if you experience any of the above symptoms.

Chlamydia and gonorrhea infections usually don't cause vaginal odors. Neither do yeast infections. Generally, if you have vaginal odor without other vaginal symptoms, it's unlikely that your vaginal odor is abnormal.

HOW IT SPREADS
By having unprotected vaginal, anal, or MouthAction.
By mother to baby by pregnancy, labor, or nursing.


INDICATIONS
-Over 100 thousand persons are infected per year in Nigeria.
-Spreads by sexual contact
-Treatable by a medical professional
-Short-term: resolves within days to weeks
-Requires a medical diagnosis
-Lab tests or imaging always required.


TREATMENT
The two most commonly prescribed antibiotics for chlamydia are: azithromycin – given as 2 or 4 tablets at once. doxycycline – given as 2 capsules a day for a week.
