Chlamydia is the most common bacterial sexually transmitted infection (STI) in the UK; affecting both men and women. Most people with chlamydia have no symptoms, but left untreated, chlamydia, can lead, in women, to infertility, ectopic pregnancy and chronic pelvic pain. In men it may cause urethritis and epidydimitis. In both sexes it can cause arthritis.

The National Chlamydia Screening Programme (NCSP) is a control and prevention programme targeted at the highest risk group for chlamydia infection in England, young people under 25 who are sexually active.
Chlamydia is often asymptomatic so a large proportion of cases remain undiagnosed, but infection can be diagnosed easily (young people can do the test themselves), and treated effectively.
