The sexually transmitted disease chlamydia is not life-threatening. It can cause sterility and other complications but it does not result in death. Chlamydia acquired at birth from an infected mother can be life-threatening to the baby as it can invade the lungs and cause a form of pneumonia. The risk only occurs in the birth canal as chlamydia cannot pass the cervix while a woman is pregnant.
Chlamydia trachomatis can cause several serious sequelae, including pelvic inflammatory disease, increased risk of subsequent ectopic pregnancy and infertility, peritonitis (infection of the abdominal cavity), and Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome, which is a peri-hepatic infection involving the chlamydial organism as well as other anaerobic organisms.
