No, chlamdydia could cause a miscarriage though. Chlamydia does not cause problems if you treat it right away. But left untreated, it can lead to serious problems, especially for women: * If it spreads it can cause pelvic inflammatory disease. This serious infection can make it hard or impossible for a woman to get pregnant. * Pregnant women who have chlamydia often pass it to their babies at birth. If the infection gets in a baby's eyes, it can cause blindness. They can also have other problems, like pneumonia. Pneumonia can be deadly in a newborn. * Having chlamydia makes a person more likely to get HIV from someone who is infected with HIV. HIV is the virus that causes AIDS.
