Description
Chlamydia Test
The chlamydia trachomatis STD is very common among younger people. It is prevalent mainly between 14-24 years and three times more amongst those aged between 25 to 39. Younger women are more at risk because their cervix is developing and more susceptible to bacteria. When the disease travels to the upper genital tract, it can cause a lot of health problems, which can be serious.
For those diagnosed with the disease, antibiotics play a role in treating and curing the disease. Abstaining from sexual activity for a week can help cure the disease. It is important that sexually active partners get themselves tested (and treated) for the disease.
Irrespective of whether the symptoms are present, screening or testing for the disease can be done as early as 24 hours after being exposed. Incubation times can vary from person-to-person and two weeks after the initial exposure, you can get accurate results. Two weeks’ rest is advised after the treatment so that the bacteria can be cleared from the system.
