Infertility
The American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology has published numerous studies that confirm one of the leading causes of infertility is a history of STIs. Chlamydia and gonorrhea are the leading culprits, but cases of trichomoniasis can also lead to fertility problems.
All sexually transmitted diseases can lead to scarring and inflammation of the cervix, uterus and ovaries, and can compromise the proper functioning of the fallopian tubes which carry the ovum to the uterus for fertilization and implantation.2Sexually Transmitted Diseases and Infertility.
