Chlamydia — also known as chlamydia trachomatis — can often be confused with gonorrhea, as they both present with similar symptoms.
Chlamydia usually affects young, sexually active women. However, it can be found in men and women of all age groups. Similar to gonorrhea, it can sometimes be asymptomatic.
The bacteria that causes chlamydia is typically spread from one person to another through vaginal, oral, or anal sex.
Though testing is not a prerequisite for your chlamydia consultation online, we strongly encourage you to get tested.
Based on your test results, we can give you the most effective treatment and care possible.
