Sexual health doctors say chlamydia retesting rates in Australia are suboptimal, with just one in six young women being tested for reinfection within the guideline-recommended time frame.
In a new study, researchers — led by Dr Stephanie Munari from the Burnet Institute in Melbourne — looked at chlamydia retesting and repeat positivity rates in women aged 16-29 treated at more than 60 sites nationally.
