chlamydia screening among adult w<strong>om</strong>en in Sweden has not proven effective for<br />

reducing the incidence of this STI. Given the current lack of research and evaluations<br />

in the field, the cost in time and money to work with high intensity interventions<br />

is significant for primary care actors. Counselling intervention should therefore be<br />

prioritized in groups with higher risk, regardless of sexual identity: sexually active<br />

teenagers, young adults with many sexual partners, currently or recently infected<br />

individuals, girls and w<strong>om</strong>en in unplanned pregnancies and their male counterparts.<br />

The studies presented in this review strongly support national educational efforts<br />

in motivational interviewing methodology that professionals in the health care<br />

system have been trained for in recent years in Sweden. These educational efforts<br />

should nonetheless be developed and include sexual risk­taking in advisory situations<br />

in cases of suspected sexually transmitted infections or unplanned pregnancies,<br />

and increase the focus on men’s responsibilities and needs in these issues.<br />
