Fear of Infertility

Hi guys. Looking for some positivity here. About two years ago I contracted chlamydia from my boyfriend at that time. I broke up with him only to find out a month or two later the antibiotics I had taken did not clear the infection. I had chlamydia for a total of 4 months. I saw multiple doctors in fear that I had PID, all of which performed pelvic exams and said I did not. However the fear of being infertile has really gotten to me. I still have abdominal pain, and have never felt like myself since. I don’t want to have sex because I’m afraid. My doctor says that I am clenching my pelvic floor muscles and that could be causing the pain. Also have been tested negative over and over again along with a normal ultrasound. As I write this I see how this is in my head, but it’s very scary to me. I also don’t know to tell future partners.
