Chlamydia screening programs

Chlamydia screening programs are health initiatives designed to test individuals, especially young people and those at higher risk, for the sexually transmitted infection chlamydia. The aim is to identify infections early, often before symptoms arise, to prevent complications and reduce transmission. These programs typically offer confidential testing, sometimes through clinics or online services, and often provide treatment if needed. By increasing awareness and access to testing, they help promote sexual health and protect individuals from long-term health issues associated with untreated chlamydia, such as infertility.
