Don't know how long I had chlamydia before positive diagnosis

[Concerned_40female]

Well, I know I probably sound totally ridiculous since I'm a 40-year-old female that was stupid in having unprotected sex over a year ago before I got back with my boyfriend (now my fiance'), which has been a year now -- I had sex with 3 different guys before then.  Back then I was diagnosed with HPV, but in my 3 PAPs there was no trace of it, so it cleared.  About a month 1/2 ago, my doctor told me I tested pos. for Gonnorrhea and put me on a 7-day medication; my boyfriend also took it for 7 days.  I must've gotten this almost a year ago when I had unprotected sex with these other guys, as my fiance' that waited for me said he didn't have sex during our separation.  And when he and I got back together we were having sex with each other all the time without protection.  Just recently I I returned to a different doctor to make sure the Gonnorrhea was gone, and now this doctor tells me I have Chlamydia, not Gonnorrhea (???).  She put me (and my fiance') on the same medication - Doxycycline 2 twice a day for 7 days.  I have to wait until a month to get checked again.
By the way, I was dianoged with HSV-2, where I get little bumps on the left side of my buttocks, but seem few and far in between since it's been almost 15 years ago.
Where was sex ed when I was going through jr. high and high school???  I was married at 20 for a long time the first time and never thought I'd be in this predicament, but I suppose I went wild when we divorced.  I look 20 years younger than my age, and I suppose liked the attention I was getting.
My main concern is this:  I've read that the longer one has these STD's and delaying treatment, the more damage it does to the female organs.  We want to desperately have children, but I'm afraid of all the complications it may cause.
Should the next test show negative for these STDs, and should I forget about getting pregnant. My age doesn't scare me as much as the damage the STDs might have already caused.

Thanks for your response and advice.  I do appreciate it!

The chlamydia probably would have been found on the first set of tests you had when you tested positive for gonorrhea.

If you had a negative chlamydia test then, and a positive one now, its a new infection.  If I'm reading this right, then that would have to be from your fiance.

Even if you had it for a year, which I am doubting with the chlamydia, you probably won't have any damage, and you should go ahead with your plans for pregnancy, if that's what you choose.
