Men And Women Should Get The Chlamydia Test

By John Cole


Infertility, ectopic pregnancy, pelvic pain, Chlamydia trachomatis is a scourge. This infection has long been minimized in humans, where it is more discreet. Today, it seems that optimism is no longer valid since nearly 10% of them are infected.

Highly contagious infection with Chlamydia trachomatis is transmitted through unprotected sex. Sneaky, this bacterium could be hosted without causing any apparent sign. The presence of this healthy carriage causes it to be hard to detect if not symptomatic.

Chlamydia trachomatis: important implications

Unlike the Scandinavian countries, no systematic screening for chlamydia is practiced in France. Thus, many gray areas remain about the number of people. The low initial genital infection often remains undetected and is diagnosed at the stage of epidemiologist (in men) and gingivitis or infertility in women. It is the leading cause of tubal infertility.

Chlamydia What is known is that chlamydia is more common among those juveniles: the risk is multiplied by 6 in women under 20. But as pointed out by Xavier Pomerania in its report on the health of young one in April 2002, "we do not currently have a reliable estimate, given that cases of asymptomatic young women or those whose symptoms are not diagnosed by biological detection, escape analysis of laboratory data performed by the national network (RENASCENCE). "

According to recent national studies (from 1997), 2.3% of women are infected and 4.1% of men. But these figures could be far below the reality, most of the those eople ask is chlamydia deadly.

Men more involved than ever before thought.

For men, the proportion of the sexually transmitted infection has long been considered negligible and no very serious consequences. To get to the bottom, a Scottish team in the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh studied the number of chlamydia among 798 young army recruits, the vast majority were under 25 years 3. With a routine examination of the urine, the proportion of infected men have been surprising: 9.8% of men in total. Of these, 88% were totally devoid of any warning sign and 12% of very mild symptoms, they did not consider it necessary to inform the medical staff.

These proportions are already reported irrespective of age. Finally, these men are not particularly more promiscuous person compared to the general male population, with only the average one sexual partner over the past half a year.

These figures are well above the proportions previously reported. "Our findings show that the rate of asymptomatic infections was much higher than that usually cited (50%) show the importance of involving both men and women in the opportunistic screening for Chlamydia" the authors conclude.

While it remains difficult to translate these results directly to the Scottish France, this study confirms its scope the need to implement an expanded support to men, the true reservoir of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Despite this, the public seems to minimize or ignore the problem.
