Definition
Chlamydia is a common infectious disease, transmitted mainly through sexual contact. In most cases it runs in a paucisintomatic way (scarcity of symptoms) or even asymptomatic. Recognizing it in time, and defeating it with an adequate antibiotic treatment, is however very important, since it protects it from its possible complications (which can cause sterility).Most common symptoms and signs *

Further indications
When present, the typical symptoms of chlamydia include pain during urination, pain in the lower part of the abdomen, vaginal and urethral leakage (in the male often only after squeezing the glans), pain during and after sexual intercourse in the woman and the testicles in 'man; the inflammatory process can also affect the rectum (proctitis) if the infection occurs through anal intercourse. Chlamydia symptoms are therefore comparable to those of gonorrhea, although generally of a more moderate intensity. Moreover, when present, these symptoms - which generally appear within 1-2 weeks from the infection - are modest and tend to resolve positively within a few days, unless the two infections coexist (which is quite common).
