what happen if someone is pregnant and have chlamydia?what will happen to the baby and mother?

Question

no rude answer please.....

Answer 1

My sister-in-law actually got chlamydia while she was pregnant (this is how she found out her husband was cheating on her.) She was able to deliver the baby naturally and there was never a thought of having C-section because of this disease. She was treated by her doctors for chlamydia and that was pretty much it. There also was never a concern for the baby's well being and the doctor's knew what to do to make sure she didn't transfer it to her baby. Now herpes is another matter, if you have herpes, then they generally chose to do a C-section so that the disease isn't passed onto the baby. I hope this helps. I'm not sure where some of these people are getting this information from. There should be no worries about the baby as long as you let your doctor know that you have this.

i just read in the book that a c section will probably have to take place so that the baby is free from all infections that it could possibly pick up with a vaginal delivery. good luck to you and your little one:

How is Chlamydial Infection Treated?
If you are infected with C. trachomatis, your doctor or other health care worker will probably give you a prescription for an antibiotic such as azithromycin (taken for one day only) or doxycycline (taken for seven days) to treat people with chlamydial infection. Or, you might get a prescription for another antibiotic such as erythromycin or ofloxacin.

Doctors may treat pregnant women with azithromycin or erythromycin, or sometimes, with amoxicillin. Penicillin, which doctors often use to treat some other STIs, won't cure chlamydial infections.

If you have chlamydial infection:


Take all of the prescribed medicine, even after symptoms disappear.

If the symptoms do not disappear within one to two weeks after finishing the medicine, go to your doctor or clinic again.

It is very important to tell your sex partners that you have chlamydial infection so that they can be tested and treated.

Can Chlamydial Infection Affect a Newborn Baby?

A baby who is exposed to C. trachomatis in the birth canal during delivery may develop an eye infection or pneumonia. Symptoms of conjunctivitis or "pink eye," which include discharge and swollen eyelids, usually develop within the first 10 days of life.

Symptoms of pneumonia, including a cough that gets steadily worse and congestion, most often develop within three to six weeks of birth. Doctors can treat both conditions successfully with antibiotics. Because of these risks to the newborn, many doctors recommend that all pregnant women get tested for chlamydial infection.

How Can I Prevent Getting Chlamydial Infection?

You can reduce your chances of getting chlamydia or of giving it to your partner by using male latex condoms correctly every time you have sexual intercourse.

If you are infected but have no symptoms, you may pass the bacteria to your sex partners without knowing it. Therefore, any doctors recommend that anyone who has more than one sex partner, especially women under 25 years of age, be tested for chlamydial infection regularly, even if they don't have symptoms.

Answer 3

have you ask the doc
I understand that when the mother have an STD the doc usually recommended that a c-section e perform instead of Vaginal
I also remember reading that chlamydia can cause the baby bliness (now I can't say that I am correct)
so the best bet is for you to make appointment to see the doc
he might be able to prescribe a treatment that will not effect the baby while you pregnant

Answer 4

I got identified with herpes virus (type 2) about 4 years back, whilst I was still attending college and had a silly one-night stand. I understand lots of young women say this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a massive mistake that one time and all of a sudden it seemed like I was going to have to live with the consequences for my entire life. The hardest part was feeling I could never date other men again. In the end, who wants to go out with someone who has sores around her private parts? But since a friend shared this movie https://tr.im/fQv0G everything got better.

Not only was I able to eliminate all traces of the herpes virus from my system in less than three weeks, but I was also able to begin dating again. I even met the guy of my dreams and I'm so lucky to write that just a week ago, in front of everybody in a busy restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me!!! This program gave me back the chance to be happy and experience real love again. Now I hope that I can help others by sharing this story.

Answer 5

They can treat you while you are pregnant so you don't pass it to your baby during birth. That is why doctors check for STD's at your prenatal appointments. Hey, it happens. They'll just treat it, you'll need to get your partner treated as well so he doesn't keep re-infecting you and then you will be able to deliver your baby vaginally unless you have some other complication that causes you to have a c-section. But you and baby should be fine. Just be honest with your doctor about this and get it taken care of ASAP.

Answer 6

Here is the real answer - - - You need to take the medicine to rid yourself of the disease. I had a one dose med that I had to drink. After that everything is fine. I had a normal delivery baby was fine. You will probably be retested before the birth, but I wouldn't really worry too much as long as you get treated.

Answer 7

In pregnant women, there is some evidence that untreated chlamydial infections can lead to premature delivery. Babies who are born to infected mothers can get chlamydial infections in their eyes and respiratory tracts. Chlamydia is a leading cause of early infant pneumonia and conjunctivitis (pink eye) in newborns

Answer 8

chlamydia can cause conjunctival (eye) and pneumonic (lung) infection in the newborn. Persons with a chlamydia infection have an increased chance of getting other infections such as gonorrhea or HIV.
It can cause infertility in women as well as tubal pregnancies.

Answer 9

Chlamydia can cause a significant conjunctivits (pinkeye) or pneumonia in a newborn.

Answer 10

the mother can pass it along to the baby. if your pregnant and seeing a doctor they will check for this during your pregnancy and if needed will treat you. if you are pregnant you should see a doctor and they routinly give tests for things like this.
