An epidemiological study was carried out to determine the prevalence of Chlamydia infections in adult females by enzyme immunoassay and microscopic examination of Giemsa-stained smears. Endocervical swabs were collected from 126 females attending OB/GYN ward at Abbasi Shaheed Hospital, Karachi. 13.5% of 126 females tested were positive by enzyme immunoassay and only 5.6% were positive by the Giemsa-staining method. The infection rate among pregnant and nonpregnant women with urinogenital problems were 11.8% and 14.7%, respectively. The majority of females complained of excessive cervical discharge and pain in the lower abdomen. A high prevalence of infection in normal pregnant women (18.2%) indicates the asymptomatic nature of this infection.
