2005, Infectious Disease Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :Prospective studies with active follow-up have observed chlamydial infection in 7% to 25% of women and 13% of men tested 3 to 6 months after treatment for genital C trachomatis infection [88–92], and rescreening of young women who have chlamydial infection has been shown to be cost-effective [93]. Although fewer data are available on gonorrhea, recurrent infections have been reported in 12% to 24% of women and 9% of men tested 1 to 6 months after treatment [92,94,95]. The argument in favor of rescreening is strong, but is not new [96].
Are adolescent girls with chlamydia infection notifying their partners?
