Understanding the epidemiology of Chlamydia trachomatis infection in men without indication for testing (without symptoms, signs, or a report of sexual contact with an infected partner) is of crucial importance to reduce the heavy burden of this infection, particularly because this group of men is not usually offered testing in different clinical settings. Using electronic medical records of two STD clinics in Connecticut, 2000-02, this study identified the risk factors of C. trachomatis infection in men with and without indication for testing. In both groups, men who were younger than 30, African-American, or had a prior history of C. trachomatis infection were significantly more likely to be infected. Since a system for routine reproductive health care of young men does not currently exist, health-care providers need to promote an increased awareness of C. trachomatis infection among their male patients who are at increased risk of infection.
