having a baby

Hi, first thanks for taking my question, and I want to tell you a little on my history
I am a male who had contracted Chlaydial around a year ago.
Unfortunely it went to my prostate. My bladder has beem very uncomfortable and urine very frequently
I have took different kinds of antibotic (antibiotic) (cirpo xp and every existing antibotic (antibiotic)) The strange part is after taking antibotics. I feel my bladder getting weaker as I urine even more.
Two urologist confrim that the clamydial was gone. And I am
safe to have sex. The urologist say the problem with the bladder will take care of itself since the antibotics have not improve it.
But my condition has improve only a little after a year. as I have to urine often every 2 hours or less and bladder always feel it need to be empty unless I urine.
The question I want to ask
Is my new wife is now pregnent for 3 months and I am very scare. I am very afraid it will lead to a unhealthy baby, because of my current condition.
many sleepless nights, due to one stupid one night stand.
Thanks a lot.

If there has been documentation that no infection is present, it is unlikely that it can affect the pregnancy.
I would continue to ensure there isn't anything wrong with the prostate. A transrectal ultrasound can be considered to image the prostate and ensure there isn't an abscess present.
Various types of urodynamic testing - including cystometry, uroflometry, or urethral pressure profile tests - can evaluate for any problems with urinary storage and drainage. These can be discussed with your personal urologist.
Followup with your personal physician is essential.
