Chlamydiosis is Oregon?s most commonly reported infection. The 7,200 cases
reported during 2002 are 304 (4.1%) fewer than 2001. As with gonorrhea
and syphilis, Chlamydia are transmitted by sexual contact. Chlamydiosis is
likely to be a silent infection, with neither men or women having symptoms.
However, reproductive health complications, especially among women, lead to
infertility and an increased risk of tubal pregnancy.
