Diagnosis and medication is needed for every disease
Chlamydia is the most common pathogen. It is a STD and caused by the bacterium Chlamydia Trachomatis. Chlamydia symptoms include abnormal vaginal discharge, burning when peeing, testicular pain or swelling, and rectal pain. Chlamydia is easily transmitted through physical contact with an infected partner and can affect the vagina, rectum, and/or throat (pharynx). It can be asymptomatic in up to 90% of females and 50% of males. Symptoms in men include urethral discharge (penile discharge) and dysuria (pain on passing urine). In women, symptoms include increased vaginal discharge, abdominal pain, dyspareunia, and unscheduled vaginal hemorrhage. These are few symptoms of this disease. However, these symptoms occur both for men and women. This disease is also capable of spreading in your body without any symptoms. Thus, frequent diagnosis and medication for Chlamydia are much needed for the affected person.
These diseases can usually be treated using some medications. It is critical to understand that chlamydia does not only occur in the cervix or urethra. However, eye infections, epididymitis, and throat infections are all possibilities. To avoid reinfection, it is necessary to get regular STD testing, especially if you engage in a high-risk activity such as unprotected intercourse.
If you suspect you have chlamydia or are experiencing symptoms of chlamydia, contact your primary care doctor, urologist right away for testing. Your doctor will most likely swab the urethra or cervix for laboratory testing. They may also ask for a urine sample to test for chlamydia and gonorrhea.
The good news is that chlamydia is curable and treatable. The partner or partners of someone with chlamydia are likely to get infected as well. So it is important to get diagnosed. It’s also critical to treat chlamydia as soon as possible since untreated infection can progress to pelvic inflammatory disease, or PID, in women. Untreated chlamydia can cause problems for pregnant women in particular. Pelvic inflammatory illness can result in infertility, long-term pelvic pain, and ectopic pregnancy. Chlamydia infection can also cause preterm labor, or the premature birth of a baby.
Medication for Chlamydia
Except in extreme cases of chlamydia in women, the sexually transmitted illness will be treated with oral antibiotics. These medications are also commonly prescribed to the spouses of people who have a chlamydia bacterium infection. To prevent chlamydia from spreading to places such as the fallopian tubes and ovaries, it is critical to take all medications as prescribed by your doctor.
