Can I Get Pregnant After Being Treated For Uterine Infection?

I gave birth to my second child 22 months ago, shortly after I had a staph aureus infection which grew a heavy culture in the cervix. I took two courses of antibiotics which cleared up the infection. Can I try for a baby again - would the infection have caused any damage to the cervix? Could the infection come back?

Hi, I think the infection is not permanent. It goes away with the antibiotics. So, you can plan a second baby. There will not be any difficulties in that. Hope I have answered your question.
