What is Chlamydia Trachomatis?

Chlamydia Cure, an obligate intracellular human pathogen, is one of three bacterial species in the genus Chlamydia. C. trachomatis is a Gram-negative bacteria, therefore its cell wall components retain the counter-stain safranin and appear pink under a light microscope.

The inclusion bodies of Chlamydia trachomatis were first described in 1907, the Chlamydia trachomatis agent was first cultured in the yolk sacs of eggs by Feifan Tang et al in 1957.

Chlamydial infection. Advances in the diagnostic isolation of Chlamydia, including TRIC agent, from the eye, genital tract, and rectum.

C. trachomatis includes three human biovars:
- serovars Ab, B, Ba, or C - cause trachoma: infection of the eyes which can lead to blindness and is prevalent in Africa
- serovars D-K - cause urethritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, ectopic pregnancy, neonatal pneumonia, and neonatal conjunctivitis
- serovars L1, L2 and L3 - lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV).
- Many, but not all, C. trachomatis strains have an extrachromosomal plasmid.

Chlamydia species are readily identified and distinguished from other chlamydial species using DNA-based tests.

Most strains of C. trachomatis are recognized by monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to epitopes in the VS4 region of MOMP. However, these mAbs may also cross-react with two other Chlamydia species, C. suis and C. muridarum.

C. trachomatis is an obligate intracellular pathogen (i.e. the bacterium lives within human cells) and can cause numerous disease states in both men and women. Both sexes can display urethritis, proctitis (rectal disease and bleeding), trachoma, and infertility. The bacterium can cause prostatitis and epididymitis in men. In women, cervicitis,pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), ectopic pregnancy, and acute or chronic pelvic pain are frequent complications. C. trachomatis is also an important neonatal pathogen, where it can lead to infections of the eye (trachoma) and pulmonary complications. Chlamydia trachomatis is the single most important infectious agent associated with blindness; approximately 600 million worldwide suffer C. trachomatis eye infections and 20 million are blinded as a result of the infection.

Women Should Be Screened Annually for Chlamydia

Women Should Be Screened Annually for Chlamydia

chlamydia discharge is the most commonly reported sexually transmitted disease in the U.S. and yet only 38% of women aged 15 to 25 were screened in 2010, Reuters reported.

It can cause pain, infertility and problematic pregnancy, but few young women ever get tested for the disease.

U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates 1.3 million new cases in 2010. Still, since the STD often betrays no symptoms, the number could be twice as high, the organization said.

The disease is easily treated with antibiotics but can wreak havoc in women who don't know they're infected.

Without treatment, the Chlamydia infection can spread into the uterus or fallopian tubes and cause pelvic inflammatory disease.

The uterus and surrounding tissues can also become affected resulting in chronic pain, infertility and potentially fatal ectopic pregnancies.

The CDC has recommended that women be screened annually for chlamydia.

If an infection is found, the health organization recommends the patient return three months after being treated for a follow-up test.

SAFE SEX CAN BE GOOD FOR YOU

Testing rates were slightly better for older women and specific minority group - 42% of women aged 20 to 25 were tested. More than half of black women say they were been tested with 47% saying they had been screened in the prior year.

Men can contract chlamydia too - one in four show no symptoms while the others may experience symptoms similar to gonorrhea, including burning feeling while urinating, discharge and pain.

Chlamydia Signs, Symptoms, and Complications in Women

As one of the most common STDs, Chlamydia Treatment either women's urinary or reproductive system. In some cases, signs and symptoms show up once infected, however, unfortunately, chlamydia may remain asymptomatic for long in women in some cases.

For women who may develop symptoms, on the following are most common signs:
- Rectal discomfort or release
- Abdominal pain
- Burning sensation during urination
- Painful intercourse
- Abnormal bleeding and/or vaginal discharge

If the infection hasn't been tested in time and left untreated, this infection can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease which can give rise to damage of fallopian tubes (the tubes connecting the ovaries to the uterus) or even brings about infertility (the inability to have children). Moreover, chlamydia may cause premature births (giving birth too early) and the infection can be passed along from the mother to her child during childbirth, causing aneye infection, blindness, or pneumonia in the newborn. In addition, untreated chlamydia infection could also increase the risk of ectopic pregnancy(when the fertilized egg implants and develops outside the uterus.)

Untreated Chlamydia May Cause Gynecological Diseases

symptoms of chlamydia in females is the most commonly sexually transmitted infection. It is a bacterial infection that affects both men and women, and is contracted through sexual contact.
If chlamydia is left untreated, it can lead to widespread infections. In women, it may cause ectopic pregnancy which is a pregnancy that occurs outside of the uterus.

If you have suffered chlamydia, you should get it treated soon as untreated chlamydia infection can cause many problems. If chlamydia is left untreated, it can spread to different parts of your body and do additional damage such as causing pelvic inflammatory disease, infertility and so on.

Men rarely develop similar symptoms, but if infection spreads to the testes, he can also become infertility. If chlamydia spreads to the eyes, it can cause eye infections and blindness. In women, the infection can spread to the uterus and fallopian tube, and if an infected mother transfer the infection to her baby, it can cause pneumonia or an eye infection that could result in blindness. So this disease deserves us to pay much attention to.

Since 2006, chlamydia notifications in NSW have risen from 12015 to 20469 in 2011, with about 60% of notification in 2011 in the 15-to-25-year age range, so the advice for young people who are sexually active is to visit their doctor regularly to test for sexually transmitted infections and, in particular, chlamydia.

As women can suffer chlamydia more easily, so women should pay more attention to this condition. Herbal medicine named Fuyan Pill can be suggested to you if you have suffered chlamydia for several times. Fuyan Pill is very safe and does not have any drug resistance. Thus, it can be used for long time, so Fuyan Pill is your best choice.

How to Detect Mycoplasma and Chlamydia?

How to Detect Mycoplasma and Chlamydia?

How many kinds of mycoplasma and chlamydia signs are there? The mycoplasma infecting urogenital system can be divided into three types: mycoplasma urealytium, mycoplasma ho-minis and mycoplasma genitalia. And there is a kind of mycoplasma which can infect respiratory system and induce pneumonia, called mycoplasma pneumonia. Therefore, In total, there are four types of mycoplasma. There is only one type of chlamydia, namely, chlamydia trachoma-tis which can infect our eyes and our urogenital system. Mycoplasma and chlamydia are found by humans in 1980s. We often call the disease infected by them chronic gonorrhea before we have a knowledge of mycoplasma and chlamydia.

The infection of mycoplasma and chlamydia is a big problem of the medical science. One of the reasons is that them are not easy to be detected. People are likely to ignore it. So the following would talk about the detections of mycoplasma and chlamydia.

The first method: we use the kit to check. The result is closely relative to the operation of the inspector and the material the inspector use. Sometimes, the patient do acquire mycoplasma or chlamydia, but the disease is not detected because the inspector is not familiar with the method. For males, it is better for them to check before morning urination. But some patients can not.

The second method: detect the antibody of mycoplasma and chlamydia in serum. This method is used by many hospital and some patients call me to ask “Is it accurate?” I think it is not as accurate as the detection of the secretion taking from urethral tract. In addition, by the present detection of antibody, we can’t classify it into several types. So that we can’t know the exact type of mycoplasma. As we all know, there are so many type of mycoplasma and some of them is harmful but some is harmless.

The third method: we can use PCR, namely, molecular biology. We can check the fragments of patient’s DNA to make sure if there is infection of mycoplasma or chlamydia in urogenital canal. But a lot of hospital do not have this technique right now. Besides, there is another deficiency of this method: if we have used medicine, even if the mycoplasma and chlamydia have been killed, the DNA would be retained in the body, then the result would still be positive.

Except all the above detections of mycoplasma and chlamydia, there are also many other methods to detect it. If you are diagnosed with mycoplasma infection or chlamydia infection, you can take traditional Chinese medicine - “Fuyan pill” to treat it. It is made purely by traditional Chinese medicine and it has an evident curative effect on mycoplasma infection and chlamydia infection.
