The presence of Chlamydia trachomatis antigen was examined in 20 sexually active teenage girls by enzyme immunoassay to prove chlamydial infection. Seven of the study group showed evidence of C. trachomatis infection. The infection was more frequent in girls who used a non-barrier method for contraception and had more than four sexual partners previously. Screening for and treatment of C. trachomatis infection in high-risk teenage girls is recommended.
