A member asked:
Do you think having an std could affect your ability to have kids later on?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on variables: Some STI's can be detected and treated with little effect on fertility (syphillis) while others like chlamydia, might damage female Fallopian tubes enough that natural childbirth would be impossible.
