Re: What Is PID/Sally

PID is Pelvic Inflamatory Disease, usually caused by an infection coming up through the opening (the os) of the cervix. Clamydia (sp?) would be one example of an infection that, if left untreated, could cause PID. PID can cause infertility in addition to chronic vaginal pain and irritation which can make your sex life miserable because it hurts all the time.

Pelvic Inflamatory Disease can also cause adhesions. Now remember, I'm not a doctor, nor am I trained in medicine. I'm only a lay person who has had untreated PID, clamydia, infertility and adhesions.

No question is dumb, except the one left unasked. With kindest regards, Sally Grigg
