Chlamydia trachomatis can damage a woman's reproductive organs
Even though symptoms of chlamydia are usually mild or absent
Serious complications that cause irreversible damage
Can also be passed from an infected mother to her baby

The bacteria initially infect the cervix and the urethra
Women might have an abnormal vaginal discharge
When the infection spreads from the cervix to the fallopian tubes
Some women still have no signs or symptoms
Others have lower abdominal pain, low back pain, nausea, fever
Pain during intercourse, or bleeding between menstrual periods

Who have receptive anal intercourse may acquire chlamydial infection
In the rectum, which can cause rectal pain, discharge, or bleeding
In women, untreated infection can spread into the uterus
Or fallopian tubes and cause pelvic inflammatory disease

Pelvic inflammatory disease
Causes permanent damage
To the fallopian tubes
Uterus, and surrounding tissue

The damage can lead
To chronic pelvic pain
And potentially fatal
Ectopic pregnancy

Rarely, genital chlamydial infection can cause arthritis
That can be accompanied by skin lesions
In pregnant women untreated chlamydial infections
Can lead to premature delivery
Babies who are born to infected mothers can get
Chlamydial infections in their eyes and respiratory tracts
Chlamydia is a leading cause of early infant
Pneumonia and conjuctivitis in newborns
