If left untreated, chlamydia can potentially lead to a serious infection called pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). PID is an infection of the female reproductive organs, including the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. It can cause severe complications such as chronic pelvic pain, ectopic pregnancy (pregnancy outside the uterus), infertility, and an increased risk of tubal or ovarian abscesses. It is crucial to seek early treatment for chlamydia to prevent the development of PID and its associated complications.
