Chlamydia Testing
Chlamydia is the most common STI (sexually transmitted infection) in Europe. Chlamydia is caused by the bacteria Chlamydia trachomatis, which is transmitted during unprotected sexual intercourse. Chlamydia is most common among women aged 16-25, and is highly contagious.

Concern is growing at the increasing infection rates within the UK and it is claimed by some to be as high as 10% in the 18-24 age group. Unsafe sexual intercourse with someone infected results in a 70% chance of transmission, and once infected a person is more susecptable to re-infection.

Chlamydia infections can cause serious complications. At first, it causes vaginal discharge, inflammation and pain in the stomach. Untreated Chlamydia can cause infections to the eyes, throat and lungs and lead to infertility. Because an infection with the Chlamydia trachomatis bacteria often comes without any symptoms, a large group of infected people are unaware of their infection.

It is estimated that 70% of the infected women do not experience any symptoms during their infection. This enables easy transmission to others.

It is very important that pregnant women are tested for Chlamydia infection as the chance of transmitting to their newborns is very high.
