Q: Chlamydia and conception ?
asked by: hopeless_09 on April 24th, 2009
New User
My ex that I was with for a year cheated on me several times to my amazement which drove me to get tested. Devistatingly, my results came back positive for chlamydia! I am so angry and frustrated I could beat him to pieces!! Its not fair that this is what I get for being faithful to one man for 2 1/2 years!!!

I wont get into that because it would be a river of tears...but I have a question. I did some research on this. How often is a woman not able to conceive from this infection??? Im terrified ill never be able to have children! My world is ending!!!!! HELP!! Put my mind at ease someone...*tear*

No response?
Can someone please help me? I cant sleep or stop crying. I need someone to talk to. I dont want to talk to any of my friends, because I cant trust any of them....and I cant even trust my own mother. I feel so gross and discusting...and I cant believe that something like this can happen to me. I can never catch a break!!! I cant take any of this sick pathetic world anymore!

It is treatable. Have you been treated?

Honestly, I do not believe it will effect your chances of getting pregnant.

If you have been treated, what did you doctor say?

Wow, not until Tuesday...not much can happen between now and then.

Hang tight and do the absolute best that you can and please don't let it get the best of you. It happens to be the best of us.

Please try to stay busy until Tuesday to keep your mind off of this...

Years ago I met this wonderful (at least I thought so until...) who gave me a treatable / curable std.

Honestly, I had no clue that I had anything, no symptoms what-so-ever...I went overseas to visit him and what did I bring back...std.

I was notified by one of our medical officers (I was in the service) that such and such had been dx'd with such and such so he had to list ALL of his sexual partners (and to think I believed I was his only one)...so I had to take medication and get some sort of test afterwards...got a clean bill of health once treatment was over and later married and had two children.

Thank you for your responses. Ill try and relax and not think about it. I dont feel like doing anything until then, I dont even wanna bare my face in public I am so embarrased and ashamed. Its just that I have the most respect for my body...and then to be brought down by this. I just hope there is no permanent damage.

Good luck!

It's like before you get intimate with another you'd want him to provide a Resume' along with medical records and recent std testing, etc before proceeding....

At least this was the way I felt...

WHAT?!?!?!
I just got a text from my ex. I told him that he'd given me an std and out of anger I told him to "get his @$$ treated before he infects the rest of the world" ...

Well apparantly he did and he says his test was clean. Is that possible??? I swear he is the only guy I have slept with. He says that its not only sexually transmitted. Should I believe it...or is it yet another lie?????? Help he is driving me nuts!! I know he has to have it

He is yanking your chain.

Did he say how he was tested? If he says 'blood'...it can not be detected that way.

A urine test is not as sensitve as a swab.

He is just trying to place the blame back on you instead of him...

Feeling better today
Ok so I just got my medication yesterday. My nurse said I have to get a check up 3 months from now to see if its cleared or not. I had already planned on it, but does that mean I should not have sex until then? Just curious. And thanks for all the responses. I do use condoms, but since we been exclusive for so long we didnt see it being necessary of having 2 forms of birth control. Thank you!!!

To hopeless_09,

I totally understand your frustration!!

I got tested years ago but i lost my phone and because i didnt have any symptoms i didnt think anything of it!! then 7 months later i got tested again and found i had chlamydia and i had it when i was tested the first time! so i have worked it out and had chlamydia for atleast a year before finding out!!

I have now met the guy i want to spend the rest of my life with and came off the pill 6 months ago and still havent conceived, every one around me is having children and i can't bear it cos i really think i could be damaged and unable to conceive!

I'm seeing the gyn on monday to be checked over because i'm worried and i cant stop thinking about it, its drivin g me insane!

I dont know what i would do if can't have children, i think my world would end.

Ok my paranoia isnt helping me much. I need a pretty confident answer from someone. Its been almost 2 months since I have been treated. I went to the clinic to see if I can get tested again to see if I was clear of it, but she explained that its too early to test again because they can give off false negatives or positives. Devastated I went home with no good news. But I was on the "doxycycline" antibiotic for one week, twice a day. I took the meds and my discharge disappeared. But im worried I still have it. They wont let me test again until July 28th. Im afraid to start a new relationship with someone. I just need to know the chances of this STD not clearing up like it should be, its driving me absolute bonkers and crosses my mind atleast 3 times a day...I need some peace of mind.

Peaches12...Im sorry to hear that! I hope you get blessed soon! Ill say a prayer for you. I was holding and tryin to put my 6 month old nephew to bed tonight...and my mother smiled and made a comment "looks like a baby should be there" it hurt because I know she wants a grand baby from me, I want one too someday.. but im afraid I wont be able to conceive after this nightmare. Im so ashamed of myself...

OKAY I KNOW U DONT WANT TO HEAR THIS but I was diagnosed with chlamydia in 1993 and of course treated but because I might have had it for month before I was tested it might have affected my fallopian tubes because I have tried to conceive and have never been able to and it has been 16 years. I regret this evry day because I wish I would have been able to have another child.
