Chlamydia vs. Pregnancy: Recognizing Overlapping Symptoms
Chlamydia is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) that can often go unnoticed, as symptoms are mild or non-existent in up to 75% of people who have it. If symptoms do develop, they may resemble those of early pregnancy, including:
- Fatigue
- Swollen breasts
- Nausea
- Lower back pain
- Light bleeding
It is important to note that not all women with these symptoms will have chlamydia. If you are experiencing these symptoms, it is important to see a healthcare professional to determine the cause and receive appropriate treatment.
