Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) disproportionately affect women and pose a significant, yet preventable, threat to their fertility.
chlamydia and
gonorrhea are the top two most commonly reported STIs in the US, and girls and young women ages 15-24 have the highest number of cases of both. The 12-month reinfection rate of chlamydia among adolescents and young women is as high as 26%, often due to an untreated male sexual partner.
Chlamydia and gonorrhea are infections that may not cause symptoms, or if they do, they're vague (vaginal or penile discharge, abnormal vaginal bleeding, cramping). "Many people who have an STI are not aware of it and pass it to their partners," said Dr. Merritt. "Undiagnosed and untreated STIs can cause scarring and damage a woman's ability to become pregnant when she's ready to have a baby. Fortunately, chlamydia and gonorrhea can be quickly diagnosed with a simple urine test and treated with a short course of antibiotics."
Successful cases indicate that Chinese medicine
Fuyan Pill can cure the chlamydial reinfection. The treatment needs 3 months. The effects is better than antibiotics.
