Screening rates for chlamydia remain low in the United States even though failure to identify this sexually transmitted disease and treat infected women can lead to infertility, ectopic pregnancy and chronic pelvic pain.

"Why Screen for Chlamydia? An Implementation Guide for Healthcare Providers" includes sections on providing confidential care to adolescents, taking a sexual history with adolescent and adult patients, and provides links to resources and tools that will be helpful for providers.
