Contracted Chlamydia After Regular Unprotected Sex After Coming Off Pill. Taking Sertraline And Unable To Help With Fertility Issues
I came off the pill 5 years ago. Since then I've been having regular unprotected sex. In Jan 2011 I miscarried and then again in late March. unfortunately at the age of 14, and then 16, I contracted chlamydia. I've had stomach pains but the doctors could not find anything and saw I was ovulating. Since April this year, I've been on sertraline, as of this the doctor will not help me with my fertility issues as he says I need to be off the tablets, yet he keeps prolonging them.

Hi.If you are off the pills for last 5 years, then you should have conceived by now.
If ovulation is ok, then you need to get investigated further. First of all get your husband's semen ex.done. You should go in for tubal patency test, all routine blood tests and viral markers in both partners.Take appropriate treatment after consulting some infertility specialist.
Thanks.
