What is Chlamydia?

Private Health Checks, Screening and Medical Check-ups for Male and Female of all Age Groups

Chlamydia is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs) caused by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis. It often shows no symptoms, which means many people can carry the infection unknowingly.

If left untreated, chlamydia can lead to serious health problems, including:

  • Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in women
  • Infertility
  • Testicular infections in men
  • Increased risk of contracting other STIs

Chlamydia Symptoms

Most people with chlamydia have no symptoms. When symptoms do appear, they may include:

  • Unusual discharge (vaginal or penile)
  • Burning sensation when urinating
  • Pain during sex
  • Lower abdominal or pelvic pain
  • Testicular pain or swelling
  • Rectal discomfort or discharge (if rectal infection present)

Types of Chlamydia Tests We Offer

At Health Screening Clinic, we offer three types of chlamydia testing:

1. Urine Test

  • Simple urine sample
  • Detects active genital chlamydia infection

2. Swab Test

  • Swab samples from vagina, throat, or rectum (if needed)
  • Useful for detecting chlamydia in specific areas of the body

3. Blood Antibody Test

  • Detects antibodies produced in response to chlamydia infection
  • Useful for checking past exposure or assessing risk of complications like pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)

Our clinical team will recommend the most suitable test based on your symptoms and personal risk factors.
