What is Chlamydia (CT)?

Chlamydia (CT) is a common, treatable sexually transmitted infection (STI) that can cause infection and potential damage to the reproductive systems. It is best to consider testing if you have reason to suspect a Chlamydia infection due to symptoms of:

• abnormal vaginal or penile discharge 
• a burning sensation while urinating 
• pain/swelling of the testes 
• rectal pain, rectal discharge, or rectal bleeding

Chlamydia, if detected, can be treated with antibiotics.
