Chlamydia is a STD caused by the bacteria Chlamydia trachomatis. It is the most commonly reported bacterial infection worldwide. Chlamydia is most common among people between the ages of 15 to 24. Approximately 1 in 20 sexually active young women (aged 14 to 24) has chlamydia. It is also common among men who have sex with men.
Transmission of chlamydia occurs through sexual contact with the penis, vagina, mouth or the anus of an infected individual. It can also be passed on to a baby perinatally if they mother has an untreated infection at the time of delivery.
When untreated, chlamydia infections in women can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease, tubal factor infertility, ectopic pregnancy and chronic pelvic pain.
You can contract chlamydia even after being treated for an infection, if you have sexual contact with a partner who is infected.
Most individuals infected with chlamydia are asymptomatic or do not show symptoms. Only 10% of men and 5%-30% of women with lab confirmed chlamydia show symptoms.

Details and FAQs

Here are some of the most frequently asked questions we usually get. Please feel free to contact us if you have any other questions.
How does the chlamydia test work?
To take a urine sample, use the collection cup provided and transfer a small amount of the urine into the sample vial. For collecting a vaginal sample, use the provided swab. Place your sample in the specimen bag provided and mail it back to the lab using the prepaid envelop inside the kit. Several different diagnostic tests are available for chlamydia. Our lab uses a molecular testing technique known as nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT), which detects the presence of bacterial DNA from a urine sample or a vaginal swab. NAAT tests are the most sensitive and can be performed rapidly.
How is chlamydia treated?
Chlamydia is easily treated with antibiotics. If your test is positive, talk to your healthcare provider. Refrain from sexual activity until your antibiotic course is completed. If your symptoms do not subside after a few days of taking antibiotics, visit your healthcare provider. It is important to complete your antibiotic treatment, since inappropriately treated partners can pass on the disease. Repeat infections are common particularly in women. Multiple infections in women can lead to reproductive complications.
How can chlamydia be prevented?
Avoiding vaginal, rectal or oral sex is the only surefire way to prevent STDs.
  • If you are sexually active
  • Male condoms when used properly, reduces the risk of getting or giving chlamydia. Long-term monogamous relationships with a tested partner can also reduce your risk.
