The physician performs a pelvic exam, which reveals the presence of an abnormal thin,
watery vaginal discharge and inflammation of the cervix. The physician then palpates
the abdomen (examines by touch and pressure) and finds that the uterus, fallopian
tubes, and ovaries are enlarged and tender. The physician takes a swab sample of the
cervix and sends it to the laboratory to determine the causal organism. Light microscopy
and simple staining of the sample in the lab reveal an organism with a very unique life
cycle. The organism is classified as gram-negative, but it stains very poorly compared to
other classic gram-negative STI pathogens. The stain shows both a nonreplicating,
extracellular infectious elementary body and a replicating, noninfectious reticulate body
inside mucosal cells from the cervical epithelium swab. Based on the symptoms and
these new laboratory findings, which of the following would be the most -
ANS-chlamydia

Chlamydia PID is just part of the overall spectrum of disease caused by Chlamydia

we are still exploring how the organisms "branch out" beyond just a single infection.
Which of the following diseases have Chlamydia infection as an etiology?
