A person with chlamydia may have no symptoms, but can pass the disease to others, or have serious complications. A female may experience irregular bleeding, pain during intercourse, a vaginal discharge, belly pain, or pain with urination. People are sometimes afraid to tell their sexual partner that they have an infection. Although it s hard to talk about, it is necessary to do so. It is very important for the partner to get treatment as well.
Untreated chlamydia can make a person sterile or unable to have children.
This disease can also be passed to babies during birth. If you have questions about chlamydia, contact the health department, a family planning clinic, or your healthcare provider. To prevent chlamydia use latex or plastic condoms each time you have sex. All Rights Reserved. 101 Sivley Road.
