stds and infertility pls help !

Pls help. I had std(gonorhea) about ten year ago, i didn't know ( because i had no symptoms) until after two years when i met my current patner. i got it treated as soon as the dr confimed it.

my questions are

Is it all std results in PID that cause damage to fallopian tubes?

Does stds cause a condition called pcos?

what are the chances of me having blocked tubes ?

Is it possible for my immune system to fight stds ?

pls help

No, not every gonorrhea infection will result in PID, and 2 years is a REALLY long time to go without symptoms.  Are you sure you weren't infected after that?

STDs don't cause PCOS.

Gonorrhea... 10 years?

Hm...

I don't think you have it for 10 years. As far as I know, DGI is really destructive and in 10 years even without symptoms... you would be... DEAD.

That's what I've read. By the way, did you have PID? I don't think so that PID would lead you to infertility.

Just wanted to help.

See you.
