What is Chlamydia?
Chlamydia is a common STI caused by the bacteria Chlamydia trachomatis. It can affect anyone, often without noticeable symptoms, which is why regular testing is so important for everyone’s health.
What Are the Symptoms of Chlamydia?
Chlamydia often doesn’t show symptoms, which is why testing is so essential. When symptoms do appear, they can vary between women and men:
- Vaginal discharge
- Painful urination
If left untreated, Chlamydia can lead to Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID). Symptoms include:
- Low-grade fever
- Non-menstrual bleeding
- Painful intercourse
- Lower abdominal pain
The symptoms of Chlamydia in men are:
- Swollen or overly–sensitive testicles
- Painful urination
- Discharge from the penis
- Rectal inflammation
In men, Chlamydia can spread to the epididymis, the tube that connects the testicle with the vas deferens. This can result in:
- Blood in the semen
- Discharge from the urethra (the opening at the end of the penis)
- Discomfort in the lower abdomen or pelvis
- Fever
- Severe groin pain
- Lump in the testicle
- Pain during ejaculation
- Pain or burning during urination
- Painful scrotal swelling (epididymis is enlarged)
- Tender, swollen groin area on affected side
- Testicle pain that worsens during a bowel movement
