I hope not because I had that too and I want to get pregnant sometime in the soon future

If you didn't treat well from chlamydial infection may be one of the reason for delaying pregnancy

Doctors are of the opinion that several complications and problems may be linked to non-pregnancy because of non-user of the parts of woman's reproductive organs.

Uterine fibroids: When the uterus is not "worked", it has a higher chance of developing uterine fibroids, or bumps and growths. This could cause heavy, painful menstruation, and could put pressure on the organs.

Cervical cancer: A sexually active woman who has had more than one partner is believed to be at a higher risk of developing cancer of the cervix (the neck of the uterus which leads to the vagina). This is because sex exposes you to various types of the human papilloma virus (HPV). A celibate woman is not at risk.

Cancer of the womb: While this is not the most common cancer that strikes women here, a woman without babies is at a higher risk of developing cancer of the womb. About 30 per cent of patients with cancer of the womb have never had babies.

Breast cancer: The incidence of breast cancer has been found to be lower among women who breast-feed for six months or more. Mothers who do not breast-feed are not at lower risk.

Ovarian cancer: The incidence of cancer of the ovaries, where a woman's eggs are stored, is also believed to be higher among women who delay or reject pregnancy because the release of the egg is traumatic. Pregnancy offers a period of protection, when ovulation stops. Because the ovaries are one of the most protected parts of the female body, ovarian cancer cannot be detected until very late. That is why it is known as the "silent killer''.

It is a possibility. Especially if it went undiagnosed for awhile. When it goes untreated it attacks the fallopian tubes and causes scar tissue making it hard to conceive, even impossible in severe cases.
If you caught it right away then something else may be the issue. I would definitely consult your doctor to find out for sure.

I hear that Chlamydia can make either a man or woman sterile... :( Hope that didn't happen to you. Good luck though!!!
