chlamydia is one of the most common STD over the world. It is a condition that should be treated quickly, not only because it can bring complication to people, but also because it is a condition that spreads easily.
People with chlamydia often don't have any outward symptoms. In fact, about 75% of infections in women and 50% in men are without symptoms. Therefore, if you think you may have been exposed to the disease, timely and properly treatment is necessary. Antibiotic therapy is the most common treatment of chlamydia. However, antibiotic therapy isn't the most suitable treatment for chlamydia.
Antibiotic therapy cannot clear all chlamydia within a short time
Generally speaking, to cure the chlamydia infection totally, men need to take antibiotic therapy at least two months. However, because antibiotic is harmful to liver and kidney and taking antibiotic therapy for a long time can also bring infection or sever complications to people, so it isn’t suitable for long time taking. What's more, patients can experience the recurrence of chlamydia if he or she stops taking antibiotic therapy before having all bacteria or infection cleared.
Overuse of antibiotic therapy makes antibiotic useless
Nowadays, the abuse of antibiotic therapy becomes serious. Antibiotics are easy to be found everywhere because they love to take antibiotics to cure many conditions no matter what are the causes of these conditions. So the effect of antibiotic gets worse and worse. Therefore, for these patients who take antibiotic frequently, antibiotic therapy is useless.
Clearing away bacterial infection is the only function of antibiotic therapy
It is known that the left untreated chlamydia infection can bring a lot of complications and damages to sufferers. However, antibiotic therapy is such a treatment that only can clear away bacterial infection, so the damages or the chlamydia complications caused by chlamydia infection cannot be cured by antibiotic therapy. To cure the chlamydia infection and the complications, people should combine the antibiotic therapy with other treatment like laser or microwave therapy.
What's more, in the view of TCM, the major reason of chlamydia infection is weak immunity, so it is better to accept a treatment that can both enhance immunity and clear away bacteria, like
Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill. All in all, antibiotic therapy isn't the best treat option of chlamydia infection.
