Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) that is caused by bacteria called Chlamydia trachomatis. If men or women have Chlamydia, these bacteria are found in their semen or vaginal fluids.
Chlamydia is increasingly common. That means that you can be at risk even if you haven’t had a lot of sexual partners. And you may have it, even if you have no symptoms at all.
