PID (Pelvic Inflammatory Disease)

Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) is an infection of the female reproductive organs, including the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. It often results from sexually transmitted infections like chlamydia or gonorrhea. PID can cause symptoms such as pelvic pain, unusual discharge, fever, and pain during intercourse or urination. If untreated, it can lead to serious complications like chronic pelvic pain, infertility, or ectopic pregnancy. Prompt diagnosis and treatment with antibiotics are essential to prevent long-term health issues. Regular sexual health check-ups and safe practices help reduce the risk of developing PID.
