Chlamydia is the most common sexually transmitted disease in the world.

However, according to Live Science, not all types of lactobacillus are useful. Scientists have proven that some types of bacteria are not dangerous but increase the risk of chlamydia.

Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted infection caused by the bacteria chlamydiatrachomatis . The patient cannot know if he or she has chlamydia because there are usually no signs or symptoms.

Experts tracked 115 healthy women between the ages of 16 and 29. They all tested chlamydia every year for 2 consecutive years. In about 60 women for the first time did not find chlamydias. But the second time the tests showed the presence of chlamydia. The vaginal microflora of these women was compared by experts to a control group of 55 perfectly healthy women.

It turns out that the probability of chlamydia is related to the overwhelming presence of a lactobacillus - Lactobacillus iners . These bacteria are completely harmless, but they create favorable conditions for chlamydia infection.
