Best Answer

Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by the bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis that leads to the infection of some reproductive organs in both men and women.

If left untreated, it can become serious for both men and women and can lead to the damage of a woman's reproductive organs, infertility and ectopic pregnancy. It may also lead to fertility problems in men. People suffering from chlamydia are more prone to HIV.
