Fertile Talks with Dr. Yemi Famuyiwa
The Silent Threat to Fertility: How STIs Can Damage Reproductive Health (Episode 86)
In this important episode of Fertile Talks, Dr. Yemi Famuyiwa addresses a rarely discussed but growing cause of infertility worldwide: sexually transmitted infections. Many STIs—including chlamydia and gonorrhea—are often silent and go undetected for years, yet can cause lasting damage to the reproductive system in both women and men.
Dr. Famuyiwa explains how untreated infections can quietly ascend through the reproductive tract, triggering inflammation, scarring, tubal blockage, ectopic pregnancy, chronic pelvic pain, and impaired sperm health. She also discusses other infections such as syphilis, HPV, and even rare conditions like uterine tuberculosis, highlighting their potential impact on fertility, pregnancy outcomes, and long-term health.
This episode underscores the power of prevention—routine screening, safer sex practices, and early treatment—and serves as a vital reminder that protecting fertility often starts long before someone is ready to conceive.
