Because chlamydia is caused by a bacterial infection, our immune system will step in to try and deal with the problem. One thing the immune system will do to stop the disease is to make the body hotter. If the body is too hot for the bacterium then it can slow it down, or even kill it altogether.
This warming up of the body is a phenomenon known as a fever, and most of us will have experienced it at least once in their lives. In cases of chlamydia, the fever will be quite mild although it can become higher in some cases.
