What is Chlamydia?
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
3. No Symptoms
Most people that have chlamydia will not be aware that they have it. While this is obviously beneficial in one sense, it is also a drawback in another. The drawback being that the infected person is more likely to transmit the disease to other people. This is because the patient is not aware, and their sexual partners won’t recognize any symptoms.
That there are no symptoms also means that it is a good idea to get regular check-ups. Check-ups are fairly straight forward and can be requested by a sexual health clinic, or from your local doctor. Young, sexually active people are especially encouraged to get checked regularly.
