Chlamydia is the most commonly notified infection in young Australian women and reports of cases are increasing. While chlamydia is thought to result in infertility and ectopic pregnancy in later life, the evidence for this is limited. This will be the largest, most comprehensive study in the world to determine the risk of infertility and ectopic pregnancy following chlamydia infection. The results will provide vital information to more cost-effectively plan strategies to control chlamydia in Australia.

衣原体是澳大利亚年轻妇女最常报告的感染，病例报告正在增加。虽然衣原体被认为会导致不孕症和宫外孕在以后的生活，这方面的证据是有限的。这将是世界上规模最大、最全面的研究，以确定衣原体感染后不孕和宫外孕的风险。研究结果将为澳大利亚制定更具成本效益的衣原体控制战略提供重要信息。
