Chlamydia Symptoms

[Hidden]

Dear L-13,

Chlamydia infects the cells in the genital tract (commonly the male and female cervix but rectum and throat are also possible dependant on sexual practices). The body responds to infection by causing inflammation which can lead to soreness discharge in the infected area.

Kind regards

Thank you!
