An infected man typically has chlamydia in his semen. Chlamydial infection can ascend to the prostate, epididymis, and testes, and can directly affect the quality of sperm. Scarring in the male reproductive tract can affect sperm count. See related link.

Chlamydia can affect sperm quality if it affects a man's testes, prostate, or epididymis. In addition, infection can cause scarring that can interfere with the sperm's travel from the testes to the vagina. See related link.

One complication of chlamydia can be damage to the tubes that carry sperm from the testicles into the semen. In addition, chlamydia can directly infect the testes, and affect sperm count and quality. Chlamydia treated promptly does not affect sperm count, and you can still get someone pregnant while you have chlamydia.

Sure, you can detect chlamydia on sperm or in semen, but a urine sample will suffice for diagnosis of urethral chlamydia in men.

Males can still produce sperm after getting chlamydia. If chlamydia causes scarring in the male reproductive tract, it's possible that sperm count will be decreased due to the blockage. In addition, men who get chlamydia infection in the testes may experience a decrease in sperm quality and quantity that gradually resolves after treatment. But sperm production continues.

Yes it could cause a ZERO sperm count. I have been on Zoloft (Sertraline) for 3 years and my sperm count is extremely low. So in essence it makes you infertile for the duration of use and possibly beyond.
