Chlamydia Symptoms in Singapore: Chlamydia in Singapore is a common and curable sexually transmitted disease (STD). If left untreated, it can lead to pregnancy-related complications in women.

Symptoms of chlamydia

Most people who have chlamydia do not have symptoms. After an exposure via unprotected sex with an infected individual, symptoms may appear within 5-10 days. Even if you remain asymptomatic, the infection can damage your reproductive system. Chlamydia can also spread to the rectum, by either receptive anal sex or spread from the vagina.

If you are a woman with chlamydia, you may experience low-grade fever, pain or a burning sensation while urinating, vaginal bleeding after intercourse, a strong-smelling yellow discharge from the vagina, pain with intercourse, a frequent urge to urinate, intermittent bleeding between periods, abdominal pain, swelling inside the vagina, swelling around the anus, and anal itching and bleeding.

If you are a man with chlamydia, you may notice swelling or pain in the testicle(s), a discharge from the penis (which may be milky, pus-like, or watery), a burning sensation while urinating, swelling around the anus, anal itching and bleeding. Interestingly, a chlamydia infected male may experience mild symptoms, which may occur only in the morning.

If you have any of these symptoms or if you think you may have exposed to chlamydia, you should visit your doctor to get tested for chlamydia and other STDs.
