Chlamydia Trachomatis urinary tract infection refers to the inflammation of the urinary system caused by Chlamydia infection. Non-gonococcal urinary tract infection caused by Chlamydia is mainly transmitted by sexual intercourse, with an incubation period of 1-3 weeks.
There are three kinds of Chlamydia that cause human disease: Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Chlamydia psittaci, and Chlamydia pneumonia. Chlamydia urinary tract infection is more common in sexually active young people; the proportion of men and women is similar.
Causes:
1. Host factors
Abnormal urinary tract structure and function, retrograde operation of the urethra, decreased immunity, pregnancy, and heredity were risk factors of infection.
2. Pathogens
Chlamydia can pass through the filter, strict intracellular parasitism, heat-sensitive, cold resistant. Chlamydia trachomatis can cause genitourinary tract infection, which can be divided into three biological variants and 19 serotypes. Among them, serotype D-K can cause genitourinary system inflammation, as well as Leiter's syndrome, namely multiple symmetric arthritis, conjunctivitis, and urethritis.
The pathogenic mechanism is related to the inhibition of metabolism of infected cells, dissolution, and destruction of cells, cytotoxicity of metabolites, induction of hypersensitivity, and autoimmune response.
3. Transmission channels
The infection source of Chlamydia Trachomatis urinary tract infection is a recessive infection, and patients, mainly through sexual transmission, promiscuity, early age of sexual life, and unclean sexual intercourse, are especially easy to infect. It can be transmitted vertically through the intrauterine, birth canal, and puerperium.
The recurrence of Chlamydia gonorrhea infection is related to gonococcal co-infection. The non-gonococcal urethritis and urinary tract infection caused by Chlamydia is mainly transmitted by sexual intercourse, and the incubation period is generally one to three weeks.
Symptoms:
1. Male patients
Male patients usually have discomfort in perineum, pruritus of the urethra, tingling or burning sensation, accompanied by frequent urination, the urgency of urination, and pain of urination. Some patients have urethra redness and urethra serous or mucous purulent secretion.
When they get up in the morning or do not urinate for a long time, there may be scabby membrane at the urethra opening. There are also some patients with prostatitis, epididymitis, orchitis, and Leiter's syndrome.
2. Female patients
Female patients with urethritis often have no symptoms, or symptoms are not obvious. 50% of the patients showed frequency of urination and discomfort of urination, with slight or no pain in urination, and a small amount of serous secretion overflowed when the urethra was compressed.
Mucopurulent cervicitis is the most obvious inflammation of the reproductive tract, which is often accompanied by great vestibular adenitis, vaginitis, pruritus of vulva, and discomfort of the lower abdomen. If the treatment is not timely and thorough, it may be complicated with endometritis, salpingitis, and pelvic inflammatory disease, resulting in ectopic pregnancy, abortion, and infertility.
At present, antibiotics are generally used to treat Chlamydia. Some antibiotics have a very good effect on Chlamydia infection, such as erythromycin, penicillin, and so on. Generally speaking, the use of antibiotics for treatment, about a month, will be able to recover. If antibiotic treatment is ineffective, there may be drug resistance. Then people can try other antibiotics or choose Chinese herbal medicine Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill.
It can effectively remove the pathogen of Chlamydia, so that it will not continue to spread and harm other organs; in addition, it can also repair the genital tract mucosa damaged by Chlamydia, improve the vitality or activity rate of sperm, and improve the fertility of men and treat Chlamydia mycoplasma from many aspects.
Due to the strict compatibility of natural herbs in its formula, it will not produce drug resistance and other problems. Because the disease is caused by Chlamydia infection, the typical clinical manifestations are similar to gonorrhea. If diagnosis and treatment are timely and correct, it will achieve a good effect.
