Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted disease.
Chlamydia is an STD caused by the bacteria Chlamydia trachomatis. Other STDs do not cause, turn into, or lead to chlamydia.
Chlamydia is not the most dangerous STI.
Chlamydia psittaci is a different bacteria from the one that causes the STD known as chlamydia. That infection is caused by Chlamydia trachomatis. The tests for chlamydia are built to avoid cross-reaction with Chlamydia psittaci.
Chlamydia is not a disease that has stages. Syphilis is the STD with distinct stages.
Sex. It is an STD.
"STD" describes how you get chlamydia. It is not a descriptor of whether or not it's curable.
Trachomatis is not the same as trichomonas. Chlamydia trachomatis is a bacterial STD, and trichomonas vaginalis is a protozoal STD.
Chlamydia trachomatis, the bacterium that causes the STD known as chlamydia, does not affect any animal other than humans. Other types of chlamydia, such as Chlamydia psittaci, affect animals.
Koalas get chlaydia, although it's a different kind of chlamydia than the STD that affects humans.
Yes, in the case of chlamydia or gonorrhea
Chlamydia is the most common bacterial STD in the US, and the most common reportable STD. You should know that not all STDs are reportable, so the CDC doesn't get direct reports about HPV or trichomonas.
Cough is not a sign of chlamydia trachomatis (the STD) in adults. In newborns affected by chlamydia in the lungs, a hacking cough that doesn't bring up phlegm can be a sign of disease. There is another species of chlamydia, chlamydia pneumoniae, that causes cough.
