“More cases of sexually transmitted diseases were reported last year than ever before,” federal officials said on Oct 19, 2016. More than 1.5 million people were reported with chlamydia, the most common sexually transmitted disease (STD), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported.
Among the chlamydia cases, gay and bisexual men account for many of the new cases, and the biggest numbers are among young adults, especially those in their late teens and early 20s. "Half of all STDs occur in youth under age 20," said Mermin, director of CDC’s National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention.
In order to reduce the chlamydia cases, it’s essential to know how to have a safe sexual life. The prevention below are helpful for avoiding getting infected with chlamydia.
▪ Use condoms correctly every time you have sex.
▪ Wash your genital areas before and after sexual intercourse.
▪ Limit the number of sex partners, and do not go back and forth between partners.
▪ Practice sexual abstinence, or limit sexual contact to one uninfected partner.
▪ If you think you are infected, avoid sexual contact and see a doctor.
Though Chlamydia can be cured by antibiotics, people often don’t even know they are infected since the symptoms of this disease are unnoticeable within one to three weeks. When they noticed the signs of Chlamydia and go to get a treatment, the condition sometimes may be severe, which will increase the difficulty in curing.
Recent years, new herbal medicine called Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill (for men) and Fuyan Pill (for women) are proven to have good effect on curing Chlamydia.
