A member asked:
Fever during childbirth and placenta "inflamed" but no culture growth, is that def chorioamnionitis? if yes, could mild case lead to infertility?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and No: The symptom of fever and the pathology report of inflammation makes chorioamionitis a likely diagnosis. This should not lead to infertility. Hope all is well with you and the baby.
