Sumario:Chlamydia trachomatis is a microorganism known for years to cause ocular, urogenital, and neonatal infections in humans. It usually causes urogenital system infections. The pathogen, which is the most common cause of urethritis in males, is one of the sexually transmitted microorganisms.

In this section, we assess the approach to male urethritis due to chlamydia, which is very common in urology practice and can cause serious problems if left untreated.
