Infertility is one of the most serious complications of sexually transmitted diseases .
If conception does occur, scar tissue may keep the fertilized egg from reaching the uterus and force it to implant itself within the fallopian tube. Treatment may consist of painkillers and antibiotics to kill the organisms causing infection. Some severe cases may require hospitalization. Sex partners should be treated as well to prevent reinfection. For more information on sexually transmitted diseases and infertility, contact your physician.
