Chlamydia is the "best" STD to catch if ya had to pick one. It takes years to become infertitle from it. Many women never know they are infected because of the lack of symptoms. If women do get symptoms it could mock a yeast infection so many women just go to the store and by some yeast medicine. I am not saying catching an STD is not serious (because it could lead to physical problems, and has emotional consequences as well) but getting treated early for Chlamydia is great. HOWEVER keep going back to make sure it is gone. Too many women take the medicine and think "its all over" but the medicine really was not strong enough... the doctor can provide a better medicine and then you should be fine
* If Chlamydia is Not Treated:
Without treatment, chlamydia infection can spread to other parts of the body causing damage and serious long-term health problems.
In women, chlamydia can cause pelvic inflammatory disease, which can lead to:
* ectopic pregnancy (a pregnancy outside the womb)
* blocked fallopian tubes (the tubes which carry the egg from the ovaries to the womb), which can result in reduced fertility or infertility
* long-term pelvic pain
* early miscarriage or premature birth
In some cases, gonorrhea also co-infect with chlamydia. Sterility occurs if and when the chlamydial / gonococcal infection spreads to uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries.
