What is the cause of chlamydia infection

The problem of chlamydia infection cannot be easily ignored, because many factors in life may lead to the occurrence of infection. The most common ones are sexual transmission, indirect contact transmission, and childbirth, which have also become important causes of chlamydia infection.

1. Sexual transmission

Sexual transmission is the most common cause of chlamydia infection. If you do not pay attention to hygiene during sexual life, or have too many sexual partners, or have sex too frequently, it is easy to cause chlamydia infection, and you are also likely to be infected with other diseases. Therefore, you must ensure a healthy sex life and prohibit having multiple sexual partners.

2. Indirect transmission

There are many indirect transmission routes of chlamydia infection, such as sharing towels, clothes and other personal items with patients, using equipment used by patients, or sharing a swimming pool with patients, etc. These situations may lead to chlamydia infection. Therefore, female friends must be careful not to share personal belongings and try not to come into contact with patients infected with chlamydia, so as to reduce the chance of infection.

3. Childbirth

Childbirth is one of the important causes of chlamydia infection in women. Pregnant women are prone to Chlamydia trachomatis reproductive tract infection during childbirth. Newborns may be infected with Chlamydia trachomatis through vaginal delivery, which makes the baby very likely to suffer from conjunctivitis and chlamydial pneumonia. The most common clinical manifestation of Chlamydia trachomatis female reproductive infection is endocervicitis.

4. Generally, sensitive antibiotics can be selected for symptomatic anti-infection treatment based on drug sensitivity tests, but it is easy to produce immune effects. Here we recommend the use of traditional Chinese medicine for treatment, such as diuretic and anti-inflammatory pills. Be careful not to drink alcohol, eat seafood, leeks, and coriander, and do not have frequent sexual intercourse.
