A member asked:
Can a woman have chlamydia for years (2) and still be fertile?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes, but...: It's very uncommon to have chlamydia that long. It's usually cleared by the immune system in a few months. No matter how long a chlamydial infection lasts, it usually doesn't cause infertility. It can happen, but probably no more often in a prolonged infection (many months) or a brief one (a few weeks). If you had chlamydia and have been treated, probably you are not infertile.

Yes: Fortunately, not all women who get chlamydia are infertile. Best wishes!
