When you have chlamydia , you will have the risks to get some other risky and dangerous diseases .

  1. People who have chlamydia are at higher risk of also having other sexually transmitted infections - including gonorrhea and HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.
  2. Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). Severe infections may require hospitalization for intravenous antibiotics. PID can damage the fallopian tubes, ovaries and uterus, including the cervix. You may get PID if you have chlamydia. Some women have scarring from PID from a "silent" PID -- one without any symptoms.
  3. Infection near the testicles. A chlamydia infection can inflame the epididymis, a coiled tube located beside each testicle. The infection may result in fever, scrotal pain and swelling.
  4. Chlamydia can also cause the prostate gland infections if the men can not cure it . The chlamydia organism can spread to a man's prostate gland. Prostatitis may result in pain during or after sex, fever and chills, painful urination, and lower Back pain.
  5. Infertility , chlamydia can cause the fallopian tubes to be blocked and women can become infertility because of this disease .
  6. Chronic pelvic pain can result from scarring due to the infection.
