A member asked:

I had a mmc at 10 weeks. had a d & c 2 weeks ago and found trisomy 16. i also was found with chlamydia. can the two be related?

No: The trisomy is a genetic defect like Down's Syndrome only more severe and frequently results in miscarriage. Sexually transmitted infections do not cause genetic problems. The chlamydia is a sexually transmitted infection and requires treatment of both you and your partner. Take care. You got a lot of bad news at once and may need someone to talk to about all this
