If the chlamydia that you have been carrying around for almost a year gets you thinking about your period, it’s time to get tested. If you are concerned about your period and you have been carrying it around for a while, it’s time to get tested.
Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted disease that causes a sudden, abnormal increase in your period. In its most severe form, the symptoms can include vaginal discharge, itching, and even fever. Your period can stop at any time, although during a normal cycle, this will take a week. If you are having symptoms of a milder form of the disease, it can take up to two weeks before you notice any problems.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the disease, it is possible to pass on it to someone else. If you have been carrying the disease around for a while, you might think to yourself, “I just had a period, but I don’t know if it’s mine or not.” Luckily, you can get it tested. Chlamydia is usually treated with antibiotics that are usually prescribed by your doctor.
Chlamydia is more of a sexually transmitted infection than anything else. It can be passed on through penile-vaginal sex, sharing of towels, and sharing of toilet paper. It’s really rare though, it’s estimated that only 0.1 percent of women get it. Chlamydia is often referred to as the “period plague.” In fact, there are currently 1,300 cases diagnosed in the United States annually, with the rate of infections doubling every five years.
Basically, chlamydia causes inflammation and inflammation causes scar tissue that can block the cervix, leading to a rare form of ectopic pregnancy. So as many as 30 percent of women may experience abnormal bleeding and/or spotting in their periods. These symptoms are often mistaken for periods due to an increased sense of discomfort during the first half of the menstrual cycle. The difference, however, is that during this time, the body is producing very little estrogen, so bleeding can occur earlier.
It’s interesting to see that chlamydia may be causing a few women to experience menstrual irregularity earlier than they are supposed to. This is probably one of those rare cases where the symptoms will present themselves sooner than expected due to an infection that’s creating a blockage in the cervix. The good news is that there are many ways to prevent ectopic pregnancy. One is to take an over-the-counter drug that can dissolve any infection while also stopping the inflammation.
This is likely the case because the virus works like a drug. It causes the uterus to swell up and rupture, leading to a miscarriage. The real danger though with this is that it can also cause a pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) of the uterus and fallopian tubes which can lead to infertility.
This is a serious issue. As reported by The New York Times, almost 50% of women who have a pelvic inflammatory disease have their period late. It’s a major health risk.
So I’ve read the scientific evidence on chlamydia and I’ve read the scientific research on PID, and both are pretty solid.
So Ive read the scientific evidence on chlamydia and Ive read the scientific research on PID, and both are pretty solid. Just that there is still a lot of debate on the subject, and even though I have yet to hear a really convincing scientific case, I can’t ignore the possibility it is possible that your period might be late because of chlamydia.
