agree
1. Chlamydia screening is recommended annually for all sexually active women 25 years of age and younger.
2. An annual screening test also is recommended for older women with risk factors for chlamydia (a new sex partner or multiple sex partners).
3. All pregnant women should have a screening test for chlamydia
