Chlamydial infection is the most frequently reported bacterial infectious disease in the United States and worldwide. According to WHO, there were an estimated 128.5 million new chlamydia infections among adults globally.
Chlamydia infection is often asymptomatic. However, if left untreated, chlamydia infection can lead to serious and long-term health problems including pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and infertility in women. Moreover, it also increases the risk of HIV infection. Infants born to mothers with chlamydia may experience eye infections or pneumonia.
Because majority of cases are without symptoms, chlamydia screening, especially for individuals at high risk of chlamydial infection is recommended. Early diagnosis and treatment is also essential to prevent lasting health problems.
According to CDC, chlamydia screening programs have been demonstrated to reduce PID rates among women.
