Chlamydia trachomatis is a bacterium that can cause an STI. Chlamydia infection is very common among young adults and teenagers. However, many people do not know that they have chlamydia, because although they are infected they may not have any symptoms. About 75% of infected women and half of infected men have no symptoms of chlamydia.
Chlamydia is transmitted through sexual contact (primarily vaginal or anal) with an infected person.
The primary risk factors for chlamydia include:
Engaging in unsafe sex
Having sex with more than one partner
Being in a sexual relationship with someone who has multiple sex partners
How can you protect yourself from getting chlamydia?
The chance of becoming infected with chlamydia can be reduced by avoiding risky sexual behaviors.
To reduce your risk:
Use latex or polyurethane condoms during sex
Limit your number of sex partners
If you have recently been treated or are being treated for chlamydia infection, you must make sure your sex partner(s) also receives treatment in order to prevent getting infected again. Sex partners should receive treatment even if they do not have any symptoms.
About 75% of women and 50% of men with chlamydia have no symptoms of infection.
