Found out I have chlamydia, could I be infertile

[destinys_mom]

I have posted here before about wanting to get pregnant and havent, I found out that I have chlamydia, which I didnt know and dont know how long I have had it, I am being treated, however everything I read about it says it can make you infertile, are there test out there to find out if my organs have been damaged by this infection ?

im in your same sitaution... i have been with my boyfriend now for 11 months and we're plannin on marriage and starting a family very soon! we've attempted for a baby and been unsuccessful.. :( sOo i decided to go to my gyno and see what was wrong. i got a call two days ago telling me i was positive for chlamydia. of course i had to break the news.. but being a mom is VERY important to me! im currently on medication and he'll start his tomorrow, and we're obstaining from sex until i go back for my follow-up on the 29th.. but im just wonderin if since i had problems gettin pregnant if that says im already infertial??! does any1 know how fast it acts? how fast does it effect your female organs? i had a pap in feb of 2004 and it was normal.. so that was around a year and a half ago.. IS IT TOO LATE TO SAVE ME? please comment ! thx~

yes. there are several tests that can be done to assess the damage (if any) done to your fallopian tubes and uterus.  your doctor can give you specifics.

I DON'T KNOW IF THIS WILL HELP BUT MY COUSIN HAD CHLAMYDIA, SHE IS HAPPILY MARRIED AND JUST HAD HER SECOND BABY ABOUT A YEAR AFTER SHE GOT TREATED, I THINK YOU SHOULD VERY MUCH BRING THIS UP TO YOUR OB/GYN ASAP. BEST WISHES
