Doctors now
recommend that all women having a termination of pregnancy should
have a test to establish whether Chlamydia is present in the vagina.
The test is simple and if it proves positive
a short course of antibiotics will eliminate the infection.
If you have
a partner he may be infected as well, even though he may not have
any symptoms. It is very important that he also has a test and
is treated if this proves positive.
We strongly
recommend that you are screened for Chlamydia, particularly if
you feel you have been at risk.
