Trouble TTC After severe case of Chlamydia and PID

Hi Everyone :)

  I'm not going to go into much detail about my experience with getting chlamydia, but I was raped last year and had chlamydia from August until May of last year. It was a bad situation and it left me with PID. Which is Pelvic Inflamiltory Disease and it causes severe blockage and scarring of the fallopian tubes. 

My husband and I have been trying to conceive for 5 months- and even though I have been treated for Chlamydia, we are still having doubts. 

 

Has anyone here experienced a successful pregnancy after an STD or PID?

Needing a little hope and good wishes. Thank you all so much.

    I'm very sorry you went through that situation, that is horrible. ((hugs)) Have you talked to your OB/Gyn about if this will hurt your chances of conceiving or what you need to do? If you feel you might have scarred tubes, they can do an HSG to see if you have any blockages. There are also other procedures, you'd just have to see what they recommend.

    Best wishes to you.

    PID and Chlamydia are fairly common STDs, it's unfortunate there are stigmas attached to them - far too many women don't seek TTC advice when they could be suffering from tubal obstruction.  I'm sorry that you had to go through all that you did and that it has left you questioning your fertility.  I would see an OBGYN or RE to have an HSG done because of the STD, then you should continue to down the path of trying for at least 12 months before you start to worry - hopefully you will get your BFP soon.

    I am sorry about your situation :( You should get your tubes checked and also get tested for Ureaplasma/Mycoplasmas similar procedure to a pap smear. This bacteria can affect your ability to conceive can be present if you have had an STD.

    You will definitely need an HSG to check for blockage. Some PIDs can lead to damaged fallopian tubes or even hydrosalpinx. Hydros need to be removed because the fluid inside is typically toxic to embryos. In some cases total removal of the tubes is necessary and you would have to move onto IVF.

    Based on your history you need to meet with an RE. Hopefully your tubes are clear and ok. Best of luck!

    I'm new here and don't have much advice to share.  I did want to tell you how sorry I am that you have to go through this.  I hope you get your BFP soon.

    Chiming in to say that I'm so sorry for what you are dealing with! ((Hugs)). I would ask for an HSG to check for blockages of your tubes. Blocked tubes don't mean the end of the road but it can certainly affect your treatment plans. I would suggest going to see an RE. GL!
