Most people do not: Have a problem , but on occasion u could get a clinical or subclinical infection that could block your tubes and make your sterile, you should have regular cultures to r/o gon, chly, etc and u shoudl be using protection liek condomns if u are not married to prevent stds , the iud does not prevent stds.
