Chlamydia is a widespread sexually transmitted disease that affects both sexes equally. A woman's reproductive system may suffer irreparable harm. Because of this, future pregnancy may be challenging, if not impossible. Also, chlamydia can lead to a dangerous condition called an ectopic pregnancy. Chlamydia may infect everyone who has ever had a sexual partner. Those between the ages of 15 and 24 are at the most significant risk for contracting chlamydia because they frequently experiment with new sexual partners and typically fail to use condoms or other barrier contraception. The transmission of chlamydia can be stopped in its tracks with the use of a simple blood test. If you have a higher chance of getting chlamydia, you should be tested for it periodically.
