I agree with the two uncles, get a STD check. Chlamydia can make you infertile. My favorite aunt couldn't have kids due to chlamydia being left untreated for way too long (she simply didn't know she had it til it was too late).
It could be that you have endometriosis, but that should not stop you from having children later on in life.

You must go to the doctor immediately and get checked for STDs and any other health conditions. Be open and honest, and it will make it easier for them to find any problems. Hopefully, if you do have anything, you'll be treated and it will be okay. But you need to go to the doctor. You live in Britain, so you can go alone and it will all be perfectly confidential.

First, go see your doctor and make sure you don't have chlamydia. He says he got it after you, but who's to say he didn't have it when he was with you? If you don't get that treated, it could cause sterility.
Really, it's quite rare for girls to be completely infertile. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but with the breakthroughs in medical science that we have, many people who couldn't conceive in the past can now.
One of my ex GF's was like you when she was 15. She had gotten an infection that had doctors telling her she may not ever be able to conceive. She wanted a baby really badly. At 15, I wasn't ready to give her that. I was actually amazed she made it through high school without getting pregnant. Still, she had 2 kids the last time I bumped into her. Probably more.
Go see your doctor. Make sure you don't have chlamydia. Maybe even talk to your gyno about your fears. I'm sure they can help put your mind at ease.
