Chlamydia in Women: A Potential Cause of Infertility

For women, conceiving is a blessing from Heaven. It is a sign of a family to come as well as of the healthy functioning reproductive bodies of both you and your husband. However, not all women is gifted with this. Some couples may have waited for a long time and yet there were no signs. Possibly, this may be due to infertility on the woman's side. A woman may not be able to conceive due to infection of her reproductive organ.

You may not be aware, but you may have Chlamydia. This cervical infection is brought about by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis. Chlamydia in women is very similar to gonorrhea when it comes to symptoms and way that it spreads. Each year, about four million women are infected with it. This sexually transmitted disease usually thrives in the cervix and urethra, but can also appear in your rectum or throat.

Chlamydia in Women

Currently, there are a lot of unreported cases of Chlamydia in women due to the lack or absence of symptoms. As a result, you can pass this infection unknowingly to your partner. However, if you are lucky to feel some symptoms, be cautious of it to immediately treat this. Chlamydia in women often produces symptoms such as vaginal discharge, urinary tract infection, pain when urinating, and even infertility. For women who are already pregnant, your condition may lead to premature birth or the baby getting eye damage or pneumonia.

Once you feel any of these, you should go to a doctor for proper diagnosis. Chlamydia in women can be detected through samples from swabbing your cervix using a speculum. Another option can be urine screening tests, which are less invasive, or self-collected vaginal swabs which is less expensive.

Afterwards, if you are tested positive for Chlamydia in women, don't worry too much as antibiotics can easily help you with the disease. In some cases, during this period, abstinence from sex is advised. In addition, you should exercise better hygiene and continue with the treatment.
