Does Chlamydia affect fertility?
Me and my partner have recently been tested positive for chlamydia and we are both half way through our treatment, it could be that we have had a it for a long time but the symptoms only come up recently
we recently read that chlamydia affects fertility and this has us both worried as we both want kids later in life and were wondering:
-how long do you have to have the infection for to cause such damage?
-and can your body recover if you have had it for a long time?

Thank you for the info my girlfriend has booked a fertility test 3 weeks after our treatment prsying all will be well!!
The infertility issue involes the woman as Chlamydia can cause scarring of the fallopian tubes. Chlamydia has not been shown to affect male fertility. Hope this helps. Good luck.
The symptoms i had was pain during urination and sore penis tip whilst my girlfriend had lower abdominal pains and pain during urination. Does this mean the body cant repair itself over time or does this mean to really know wahts goin on we ll have to get a fertility test?
many thanks
many thanks
Well the long time is probably a year or more and chances are that you would have more issues then just some symptoms. Let me ask, what symptoms did you or he get?
