How is chlamydia tested?
Chlamydia can infect different areas of the body.
A sample will be taken depending on the possible site of infection.
Swab samples (either self-swab or done by one of our practitioners) can be used to detect vaginal, pharyngeal and rectal infections.
A urine sample can be taken for suspected urethral infections in men.
If we’re able to deliver an immediate diagnosis then medication will be provided during the same appointment.
When can I be tested for chlamydia?
If you are displaying symptoms, you should book in to see a doctor immediately.
It is recommended that testing for chlamydia is done 14 days after last known exposure. This is because it can take up to 14 days for the infection to be detected.
If you do not have symptoms your appointment will be with a nurse.
We advise that those with symptoms of chlamydia book a GP appointment sooner for treatment.
How long will it take to receive my results?
Results are available within 2 hours.
If you test positive, chlamydia is treated with antibiotics. We are able to dispense these antibiotics to you from the clinic.
Private & Confidential
What is Chlamydia?
Chlamydia is a bacterial infection (chlamydia trachomatis) which is usually caught from having sex with someone who is infected.
If left untreated chlamydia can cause long term complications of infection which include pelvic inflammatory disease, tubal infertility and ectopic pregnancy.
Chlamydia is the most common STI in the UK.
How is chlamydia spread?
It is spread through infected genital fluids (semen and vaginal fluids).
These fluids can be transmitted by vaginal, anal and oral sex, touching genitals and through sharing sex toys. An infected mother can also transmit the infection to her baby during pregnancy.
What are the symptoms of Chlamydia?
Many people infected with chlamydia will have no symptoms and therefore be unaware that they have the infection.
Symptoms in women can include vaginal discharge, bleeding between periods or after sex, pain/burning during urination, and lower abdominal pain.
Symptoms in men include urethral discharge and pain/burning during urination.

FAQs
If you think you have been exposed to chlamydia you should book an appointment to have a chlamydia test. If you are asymptomatic, this will be with a nurse. If you are displaying symptoms this needs to be with a doctor who can access your symptoms and recommend treatment. It is also important that you abstain from sexual contact with anybody else until you have been tested and treated.
Yes. Chlamydia can be effectively treated with a course of antibiotics.
The only way to fully ensure you don’t catch chlamydia is by abstaining from sexual contact completely. However, we know that for most people this isn’t realistic. To best prevent contracting chlamydia, you should always use a condom every time you engage in sexual activity (vagina, anal and oral sex), get tested regularly for chlamydia, chose less risky sexual behaviours and limit your number of sexual partners.
Absolutely. Getting tested for chlamydia is recommended during pregnancy because it can be transmitted from mother to baby during pregnancy. It is easily treated with antibiotics. If left untreated, chlamydia can cause eye and lung infections in newborn babies.
Yes. It’s completely fine and normal to get tested for chlamydia at any point during your menstrual cycle and will not affect the results in any way.
There are several overlaps in symptoms of UTIs and chlamydia which is why it is crucial to book an appointment with the GP who can carry out a chlamydia and UTI test in order to properly diagnose you and provide you with the appropriate treatment.
Yes. Even if you have previously tested positive and have been successfully treated, you can catch chlamydia again. It is, therefore, important to always use a condom during sexual activity to protect yourself from becoming infected, as well as getting regular tests.
You should wait at least 7 days after been fully completing your treatment before you have sex again. You can catch chlamydia again, so it is important that any infected partners also wait until 7 days after they have finished treatment.
If left untreated chlamydia can cause pelvic inflammatory disease which can result in permanent damage to a woman’s reproductive system, which is not only very painful but also makes it difficult or even impossible to get pregnant.
