According to Doctors Learning, Chlamydia is popular in the world. Statistics in the United States recorded 1.2 million new infections in 2009. Experts warn anyone can get Chlamydia, but the rate in women is three times higher than that of men, because of infections in women often have no symptoms so infected people do not realize they have the disease.

Chlamydia trachomatis bacteria are highly contagious whether or not the patient has symptoms. 75% of women and 50% of men infected with Chlamydia have no symptoms, so they do not know they have it. Usually doctors diagnose Chlamydia when the patient goes to the general examination or other health problems and accidentally discovers. The incubation period is about one to three weeks after exposure to the disease.

Women infected with Chlamydia the most common symptom is opaque white blood . However, it is necessary to distinguish normal white blood when there are hormonal changes in the menstrual cycle, while female genital Chlamydia infections have more opaque blood. Patients may be accompanied by other symptoms such as abdominal pain, irregular menstruation, increased abdominal pain during menstruation, painful urination, vaginal and anal pain.

Men with Chlamydia infection often have urethral secretions, severe urination. Unpleasant sensation in urinary hole, urinary tract inflammation. Wake up every morning, observe the red urinals and cover dry secretions.

Usually the symptoms of Chlamydia usually disappear within a month. However, infection remains, high transmission capacity, can cause more serious health problems. Without treatment, Chlamydia is easy to cause infertility for both men and women. When infection spreads to the upper part of the genital tract, female patients suffer from pelvic inflammatory disease with severe pain due to uterine inflammation, ovary and ovaries. Pelvic inflammatory disease can cause permanent infertility, chronic lower abdominal pain, ectopic pregnancy.

Men without Chlamydia infection without treatment lead to urethritis and epididymis. Chlamydia infection also changes the process of spermatogenesis, obstructing the sperm's movement and leading to infertility.
