Was it confirmed that you are ovulating every month? Age can be a reason and yes it is possible that chlamydia might have done damage to your tubes. It depends on how long you had the chlamydia without being treated. Doctors can examine for damage to the tubes but if your doc doesn't want to then go other doctor. I would go to a fertility specialist in your case. My aunt got pregnant with my cousin at your age and from talking to her she told me that she had been trying for a few years. She had no other problems aside her age. It's just more difficult at your age. Just remember to take folic acid suplements.
