Chlamydia

Chlamydia is a common sexually transmitted disease. Chlamydia can infect both men and women but mostly common in young women. Many people who have chlamydia might not develop any symptoms, but they can still infect others through sexual contact. It causes bacterial infection in the genitals, rectum or throat, cervix in women and urethra in man. 

Chlamydia doesn't usually cause any symptoms. But some might experience the following symptoms:

According to Ayurveda, there are three biological elements present in our body : vata, pitta and kapha which should be in balance. Every infectious disease is caused due to imbalance of doshas. In Chlamydia, vata and pitta are the imbalanced doshas.

Treatment protocol aims at:

• Giving relief from abnormal discharge, pain and swelling in the reproductive area and  treating the inflammation of the genitals, urinary system, eye, anus occurred due to bacterial infection.
• Prevent recurrence by healing and repairing the tissue.
• Regular intake of supplements can help in long term relief and maintain a normal reproductive system.
