Chlamydia can spread into the uterus or fallopian tubes and cause PID (an infection of the uterus, fallopian tubes and other reproductive organs). This happens in up to 40 percent of women with untreated chlamydia. Chlamydia is a bacterial infection. It is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) in New York City and around the country. Chlamydia trachomatis and other bacteria may behave in a similar manner. Researchers do not know how other bacteria that normally inhabit the female genital organ  (e.g., organisms such as Gardnerella vaginalis and Bacteroides) gain entrance into the upper genital tract.

Infected newborns may have symptoms including brain damage, bone deformity, hearing loss, dental malformations, and rash. Syphilis can be cured in all stages with penicillin. Infection-causing bacteria can silently invade the fallopian tubes, causing normal tissue to turn into scar tissue. Scar tissue blocks or interrupts the normal movement of eggs into the uterus.

Infection may become chronic if treated inadequately. Infection also can occur through the eyes, fingers or other parts of the body. Because the virus can survive a few hours outside the body, experts think it possible, though unlikely, for herpes to be spread by contact with objects like toilet seats or hot tubs. Infection in males is diagnosed from a urethral swab, and infection in females is diagnosed from a cervical swab and a urethral swab. Once diagnosed, the infection is very effectively treated with antibiotics, which the GUM clinic can provide.

Women who have had Pelvic Inflammatory Disease  have an increased risk of an ectopic pregnancy (a dangerous condition where the pregnancy implants in the tube rather than in the uterus). If left untreated, PID can also cause chronic pelvic pain. Women who douche often are also more at risk for getting pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). PID is an infection of a woman's pelvic organs. Women and their families may not recognize the warning signs of complications or may fear poor treatment or high fees at health facilities. Even deliveries in health facilities can be risky, because the quality of obstetric care may be inadequate.

Women with pelvic pain and other symptoms caused by PID should seek care immediately. The longer a woman delays treatment, the more likely she is to suffer infertility or an ectopic pregnancy in the future. Women who use intrauterine devices (IUDs) are at increased risk for abortion. Women who are told they have an STD and are treated for it should notify all of their recent sex partners so they can see a health care provider and be evaluated for STDs. Sexual activity should not resume until all sex partners have been examined and, if necessary, treated.
